Anyone have any experience with SR-4759 or A-5744 reduced loads in the .22 Hornet?

I've used 4759 in my Contender 22hornet in the past with good results.

I found both were best at 100 % load density with 45 - 60 gr cast bullets.

4759! That's a powder I haven't tried in the hornet, sounds interesting.

Lyman 225438 44g RNGC, Remington cases and 9.0gr 5744 = roughly 2040 fps. I did not chronograph, but they grouped .94" @50 yards for me. Use small pistol primers.
I don't remember if I lubed with homemade alox or Lee Liquid, but had no leading or fouling problems using air cooled wheel weight w/2% Tin alloy.
