    Blue Dot in the 218 Bee?

    I cant seem to find any bluedot loads for the Bee and cast bullets. Is there any?

    I haven't used it, because I only shoot jacketed bullets in the Bee.

    I have used 6.0 BD in the Hornet for a very accurate semi-reduced load that duplicates a 22 WMR. (But 7 grains is too hot.) The Bee is larger, so between six and seven grains would be a place to start - and maybe stop as well.
