45 gr Barnes X in a .22 Hornet
Has anyone been shooting this in a Hornet with 16" twist? I have a CZ I would like to shoot some in, just curious if others have any luck or they just don't stablize that well.

Regards,

I shoot a Ruger M77 and, I believe, it has a 1 in 14" twist.

Anyway, I shoot the 45gr Barnes XLC (blue coated) with 13.0grs Lilgun powder. This combo will shoot MOA and works very well for coyotes. Velocity is around 2,900fps.

Despite my screen name, I have the standard Hornet.
