Yeah, what's it going to buy you? I can get close to 3000fps according to the reloading data and with that load can put shots into .5 at 100yds.

TrevofKalI'd go for it if you dont have dies yet. The dies for the K version are a lot dearer to buy than the standard hornet. It will give you a performance gain of about 5 grains.( it'll do speeds with a 45 grain bullet that it used to do with a 40, and so on )
I was going to do it to mine but my hornet got stolen before I could.

GregHGo for it. My Low Wall is no K'd and it does 3250 with the 40 grain Blitzking an 3050 with the 45 grain Hornady Hornet bullet, using Lil Gun and Rem 6 1/2 primers. So says the Oehler. Pressues seem fine!
Good shootin'
