back in the 70's and 80's when I was loading for them I always had a tough time finding a load to shoot good... got rid of them and didn't get another one till I started on the Encores in the mid 90's, went to lil-gun then and never looked back...

gonna use it for the 17 HH when I start loading that also... that could be a while though, I have 3 cases of factory ammo to shoot up first...

Darn good start!

Take Dale's advice and try some Lil' Gun.  My CZ527 hornet shoots just about everything good, but Lil' Gun is amazingly accurate

 ;) ;) ;) I would call your reloading supplier and see if he has any...I know two that I buy supplies from locally do not have any in stock.  :P :P :P You can order it but it gets a little pricey since it's a hazardous material.  :o :o :o :o :o Bass Pro, Cabelas, Gander, they may have it but I wouldn't bet on it....

I am just in awe of how well the 17 Hornet factory ammo is accurate.. I have yet to reload it.. Looks like Goose did well with the H110.  I like to hear how the LIL Gun works out for you as soon as you get a chance to use it...  I will say one thing about the  17 Hornet... I have made me some $$$$$$Fur money using that caliber. However you hit the fox low in the chest it's going to rip it!! So the logic... if you have a good fox gun and we get a year that you get at least $20 -$40..bucks.. The  17 Hornet going to pay for itself!!!
