Title: Re: 22 Hornet Heavy Barrel Krag Sporter
Post by butlersrangers on Oct 1^st, 2019 at 4:59am

It appears some .22 Hornet loads create 43,000 CUP of pressure.

This was a bit of a surprise to me.

It appears to me, the Krag action is at its limits with the .22 Hornet cartridge.

Any better insights on the adequacy of U.S. Krag action strength with this cartridge?
