Home Forums Gear Free Classifieds Looking for 22 Hornet Nickel brass

I have 2 K-Hornets, and I'd like to keep the brass for each separate.
I know Remington used to make nickel plated brass, but it's not currently available.
Anyone have a stash they don't need.
Have lots and lots of once fired brass in various calibers to trade, or cash sale.
Thanks

I have 500 pcs new 22 Hornet brass @ .35.
How many would you like?

Never seen any nickel Hornet brass , not saying nobody ever made any but I never seen it . I bought a bunch of Remington .22 Hornet ammo about 15 years ago and had a neck splitting issue with it in both my Savage 340 and my Anschutz carbine . I changed to Winchester and PPU and the issue went away. It would show splits on the first firing in 6-7 out of 10 rounds fired with most having several small splits. Never had that issue with any other Remington brass , I think they were making it too thin.

EddieSouthgate: Indeed Remington made/makes 22 Hornet brass - one of my 22 Hornets uses it.
In fact, from a recommendation by a fellow CampFirer hereon (about 20 years ago now), a very troublesome (but VERY beautiful!) Ruger #1-B in 22 Hornet perked WAY up in the accuracy department when I gave up on everything else and switched to nickel plated brass in that 22 Hornet.
Only thing I can think of is the nickel plated brass had a more consistent "neck tension", or something, over the regular brass - I do know the Rifle went from POOR accuracy to very acceptable accuracy when I changed.
I do not recall seeing it (nickel plated 22 Hornet brass) on the shelves of recent though.
Good luck to the O/P.
