Anyone loading for this round? Hornady is making ammo and the bullets should be available. A rep I talked to also said they will likely make brass cases. I have found some data on the net but not much.
 
Reloading data is very scarce, because up until now, nobody made the wierd under-size .221" bullets, and all the brass was steel case Berdan primed surplus crap.

If Hornady is in fact going to make ammo, cases, and bullets, tested reloading data from them will soon follow.

The brass can be made out of .222 Remington which works OK but is not really correct. .224 bullets can be resized with a tool from Lee to .221. The bore on my rifle was made at .224 so Im planning to use that size.
