I have a NEF/H&R handy rifle in 22 hornet, that I would like to find a cast Boolit load for. This is my first rifle to cast for. I cast most of my hand gun Boolits. Having spent some time reading the stickies. I would like some recommendations on a mold that might have a high probability of working for me. And some loading dies also. I have checked the twist rate and came up with 1in 12 inches . A pound cast of the chamber shows a throat diameter of .227. If you more experienced casters could point me in the right direction, I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks in advance for your help.

I used the search feature at the top of the page. That returned at least 10 pages of links on castboolits concerning the .22 hornet. Some of it might be helpful.

Have a look at this link. NOE moulds are hard to beat.

I bought the NOE 225 45 WFN in plain base for my 22 hornet.
It's the cat's meow.
