From the Speer # 11 reloading manual, also in the # 12 and 13 manual. Which contains reduced loads for a lot of 22 center fires like the Hornet, Fire ball, jet, wasp, 222, 222 mag, 225 and even 22 250.
Speeds are in the 22lr range up to the 22 mag range and damage is roughly the same as using those. Problem I have now is they have discontinued SR4759, so am looking for new published loads with different powders. Cost per round for the hornet it about 7 cents and 8 for the Swift. BIL called me Friday and said the local gun shop had 22 mags limit of one box per and cost 20.00. No thank you.




220 Swift reduced loads.
