Hornet and Varmint Grenade

[dagger dog]

I know there are plenty of Hornet fans out there and a lot of y'all are shooting Lil' Gun and 35 gr. V-max. Here's my question. Is anyone shooting the 36 gr. Barnes Varmint Grenade and Lil' Gun? Any other load data with that bullet would be great also. If your using the Barnes what are your loads clocking, and hows the accuracy.

AA-1680 & 35 Grain V-Max

I haven't tried the Barnes grenade bullets yet. So far, I'm having a blast with using Lil Gun and AA-1680 with the Hornady 35 gr. V-max. Lots of ragged 1-hole groups with my CZ-527 Hornet. I might try a box of the grenades if I can find them. However, I loaded about a thousand rounds of the V-Max's, and I probably should use them up first.

Nope. Still using the Hornady 45 gr HP's in my 22 Hornet and 22K-Hornet. Why change something that works for me.
