.22 hornet reloading help
 
I'm having trouble coming up with a heavier bullet that will shoot in my anschutz 1730. I think when I go over a 40gr bullet the length of the bullet becomes to much for the 18-1 twist to stabilize. Is this true? Does anybody make a short heavy .22 cal bullet? I'd like to find a 50gr. Any ideas?

My Anschutz in .22 Hornet shoots well with the Remington 45 grain hollow point bullet. The 45 grain Sierra varminter is also very accurate. Bullets heavier than 45 grains will probably not work.

i beleiev you have a 1-16 twist in that gun, 45 gr should stabalize.
lil-gun powder is the choice for the hornet 13 gr.
Ive even stuffed a case full, 14 gr with the 45 gr got me 2960 fps using lil-gun
