I’ve run out of 45 Sierra bullets for my anny 22hornet. I’ve found some hornady 45hp “bee” bullets. Anyone ever try these in a magazine fed 22 hornet? Just wandering if they will load to a short enough OAL to work. Any input of their performance on varmints also appreciated. Thx. Ben

I would think that you can load them at a length that will work. The Speer 45 gr soft point spitzers will work if you can find them.

Isn't that what the Hornady Bee bullets are designed for?
The last time that bear ate a lawyer he had the runs for 33 days!

I've used a couple hundred of the "bee' bullets. It was a long time ago, but I recall that they fed well in my Anschutz rifles magazine and shot accurately enough.

I use Sierra 40 hp ( 1385 product number) in my magazine hornets. Have shot several coyotes with it. Worked well.
