I backed it down to 2.8 grains and its about the same tone as a CCI quiet but hits my little 2" steel plate with much more authority at 100 yards. I'm gonna chronograph it and play with the seating depth this week to see what kind of groups I can get. I may pick up some the Hunters Supply 58 grain slick coat bullets to see how they shoot. I'll also be be working up supersonic loads with Speer 33 grain HP's & Hornady 40 grain V-Max's.
My go to load for my Hornet has been 40 gr Vmax, Lil-gun powder, and a Rem 6 1/2 primer. I'm not playing with sub sonic loads though.
