You can get a classic Lee Loader in 22 Hornet for about the cost of a pizza and wings.
If ever there was the ideal caliber for a lee loader it is the 22 Hornet. They go together like peanut butter & jelly.
After 30+ years of reloading, using a LL is still my preferred method. Your choice of bullets speaks to a very simple philosophy - Use the right bullet. I agree.
Hornet bullets have been around for years. They're a proven design. Polymer tipped and more modern creations that have appeared since were not made specifically for the Hornet's lower velocities. As a result, some people end up having performance issues.
Some shooters read ads depicting great performance on varmints, but fail to recognize that the cartridge used is usually a 223 or 22-250.
