I have seen it posted here and elsewhere that Lee made these but nobody appears to have one. Plus, the 22HP isn't on any list of the cartridges (that I have seen) for the Lee loader. Thank you!
PS - if you have one that you'd like to sell, I would be very interested in buying it.

Over 200 views and with some of the biggest fans of 22HP here and bupkis!? That’s what I was afraid of.

Well, small wonder they don't exist. Remember that back in the 60's-70's in the heyday of Lee Loaders, the .22 HP was dead as a dodo. It wasn't until the last 20 years it made a comeback of sorts and by then the Lee Loader was almost as dead as a dodo.

A good point. However, there are other calibers listed that are not necessarily recent or popular sellers in the 60s-70s. For example, 219 Zipper? 401 winchester? Even 303 savage? Seems kind of random to me.

I'm pretty sure I've seen one or two go past on eBay, but the price was too high for my taste.
Very uncommon at least. But I think they exist.

Thanks Calhoun, at least you've seen one. Probably a bunch of collectors looking too so the odds aren't great but you never know.

I let the one I had in 35 Winchster go with my 1895, should have kept them both
I'm not greedy, I just want one of each.

Never seen a 35 Winchester Lee Loader even though it is on the official list. I have a few of those kinds of regrets myself.
