Your Weihrauch is a nice rifle, I do not know if there is even an importer in my country, Canada. Do k-hornets feed reliably in the Weihrauch’s magazine?
Gday mate. Weihrauch magazines are not the best design out there. Having said that, i have found that brass with a large taper at the base (bottom of brass) helps with feeding and extraction. I find European brass has this larger taper. Also, i find that only loading 3 into the mag makes the gun cycle better.
Great video thanks👍 I am looking at converting a Anshutz 22Hornet to 22k, do you know if I can reload 22k with the Lee Classic hand loading set? I can't seem to find a hand loading set for the 22 K but there is sets for the 22Hornet. Or will I be able to use the same set for both?
Hi , what brand of brass are you useing ? Did you anneal them prior to fire forming ? I have found PPU brass to be pretty good , certainly better than Winchester , but many cases split if I don't anneal them first. My K hornet rifle is a martini cadet with a heavy barrel & skinner peep sight .
I am using Sellier & Bellot. They fireform nicely. As do Federal and Hornady. Actually the only brand i need to aneal before the initial fireforming is Nosler. Nosler is by far superior to all other brass in the hornet class. Ps you have a nice gun there

Keep developing and update with your results please. I'm interested in what you're doing. G'day me ol' china plate from the UK 🇬🇧🙃
Will do.
Thanks for watching
Have you tried pistol primers ?

Redding makes dies
Hornady also makes K hornet dies
