Shot 4 at fifty yards, dialed and shot 5 more, repeated. I'm certain I can tighten that up into one ragged hole once I can prone out and rest the rifle on a soft rest (used the mag monopod method today). Cloverleafed 2 into 1 in each group.

18.5gr Lil'Gun, Winchester small rifle primers, Barnes 110gr black tips, 2.250 COAL, roll crimped with Lee FCD. KAC 11.5" SR-30 SBR, Saker 7.62 can. No load development done whatsoever :D. Not sure if I need to mess around with this load, either.

I like it! What is the approximate velocity?

Uhhh..."subsonic?" Sorry, no chrono.

Seriously you can borrow mine. Wouldn't take long to get there and is in a molded case with foam protector, very little chance of damage during shipping.

Those are probably around 1900-2100 fps at 18+gr of lilgun.

JM Campbell is spot on. I get about 1,970 fps from my 9" barrel at 10' using the exact same load through a Caldwell.

Whoops, I meant "supersonic" :D I was thinking of the quiet round I test in the back yard.

You've got it backwards. You're supposed to say, send a few rounds down this way and I'll chrono them for you. ;)

I am convinced Lil' Gun is magic. The .22 Hornet comes alive with this stuff.

Indeed. Plus, lending someone your chrono always comes with a "you shoot it, you bought it" clause. :)

Not worried, magneto speed set up is very replaceable component wise.
