22 hornet subsonic load

Post by SPEEDY »

Powder, Trailboss
Charge weight, 2.2gn
Primer, Winchester small pistol magnum.
Bullet, Winchester 40gn HP (22 magnum factory pill)
Velocity, 1047fps

Too windy to shoot accurate groups today but it was grouping around the 1" mark at 50m, extreme spread was 26fps but you had to crimp them very firm for consistency.
I will try some tomorrow with Hornady 40gn sp and 40gn Vmax to see if they are more accurate.

Using the top bullet hole as an aiming point for the thick part of the reticle (scope zeroed for 3000fps 40gn load) and it put 5 into this tiny hole at 50 yards.
