    I found 2207 too slow. I have been using 11.2gr of Lil Gun with a 40gr Sierra bullet and SPP for 3,100ft/sec. This was the most accurate load. After accuracy testing I checked for longevity: fired the same charge/bullet/etc in a single case 20 times and the case still had more life left in it (but the neck certainly needed annealing). Rifle: BRNO 465. I have not tested Hodgdon CFE BLK which gets a lot of internet love for high and consistent velocity.

    hi I tried the 11.2gns of lilgun and small pistol primer with 40gn bullet great result in my old savage 23 all touching at 50 meters I tried 223 and 224 projectiles 224 slightly tighter but nothing in it I have a lot of lilgun powder on had will try this in my ruger 22 hornet and see how it goes thanks for the load rupert
