Re: 22 Hornet twist rate

I have never lost a hit target with my 22 Hornet using Hornady 55 gr. SP with a moderate load in Field Pistol and Practical Hunter Short Course. Just for addition comment on knock-down - I fired my 14" MGM 22 Hornet TC at a Big Bore match in UAS-Half Scale using the same moderate load. The fina...

Re: Bullet weight for CPT

Ditto on what Charlie said - I use the Hornady 55 grain SP, with a moderate load using Accurate #9. Used this load in both of my TC FP guns, and in a MGM 14" Hornet barrel for Practical Hunter. I have NEVER lost a solidly hit target with any of my guns using this load. I also shot my 14" b...

Re: Hornady Customer Service

I have always had good service from Hornady. I purchased a set of their carbide 357 Mag dies and noticed that the carbide sizer die did not properly resize cases. I contacted them and the person there acknowledged that they had a bad batch of 357 Carbide sizers. He asked for my address and I had a n...

Re: Membership revoked

I probably should not comment, because I am not currently a dues-paying member of IHMSA. In the past, there were several instances where membership was revolked. In the very early days Skip Talbot was booted because he feuded with Elgin. Later on, in the early 80's some members in California separat...

Re: ECC needs to know if you're coming!
