In your Handi .22 Hornet what cartridge overall  length works best for your gun?  Which bullet are you using with this coal?  .DT

Dirty,

Everyone's "number" is immaterial as its gonna be different for each of us.

Make up a dummy round and figure out what your chamber dimentions are and seat bullet starting at .007-.010 off rifling and try it.

Good luck,
CW
