Andrew what I did forget to mention was a ran up some lilgun to fireform some brass with 28gr Calhoon bullet, 10.7gr average 3,286 fps Going to try it in formed brass I may even stop with 28 gr bullets any heavier they damage the meat on sambar

Re: Lets Kick This One Around
Thats humming along nicely johno. I ran up to 14.2 with 30s in the mmj so far think a tad more should be very nice based on groups leveling out again at this load.
Hey the silver calhoon bullets they don't leave anything in the barrel do they? I see they say foul less etc.

Love that last bit
Impressive with lil gun
Do you think you will get there with CFE BLK or do you think it may be too slow in that little case

Re: Lets Kick This One Around
Ryan I believe the coating is some sort of elctro plating Calhoon claims you can shoot up to 150 rounds without cleaning ive found them to be a great bullet.
Andrew i'm thinking maybe more suited to the 19 badger case, 218 bee,221 fb etc but i'll box on for a bit and see where it goes

Re: Lets Kick This One Around
Hmmm, curious, I would have thought the 19 would have given you a bit more speed than that John, only just hitting Hornet with 40gn bullet velocity. You got room to go upwards a couple of grains ??

Heaps of room to go mate thats why I was thinking of using K Hornet load Hodgdon show a start of 14.4gr max of 16.0gr i'll have to check if the case will hold that much got me doubts. I'll stick those 20 cal bullets in the post tomorrow been a bit slack
