« on: July 02, 2009, 05:12:05 PM »
I DONT KNOW IF THIS THE RIGHT AREA TO ASK THIS. iF IT ISNT, PLEASE MOVE IT. Does anybody know where i can get a hanned line .22 sgb tool? I,ve tried the Hanned line website but I just get a generic search within a search page. I have looked at Brownells as well as Midway.  Thanks to all that can help.

The Hanned Line went out of business several years ago. The only way to get one is to find someone with one they will part with. I think I have already sold mine but I'll take a look just to be sure. someone asked awhile back and I offered it and I think they took it but I'll try to look for it just to be sure.

Thank You Sir, if you still have it i sure would like to buy it. I changed jobs and dont have access to a lathe anymore or i would just make one. Just want to try one with my k-22.

Another option... this gent makes a similar tool that sells for less than $13.00.   He sold them on Ebay.

One species has evolved into obese cranial fatheads with thin skin in comparison that whines about anything and everything as their shield against their environment. Meus

 CCI brought back their sgb 22 lr(small game bullet). It will give you the same thing just about as the hanned. Only difference is cci is  40 gr flat nose, hanned would have probably been 32 gr. Just 2 or 3 passes on a round nose with a file to make a flat nose.

I was excited to try the SGB when it came out, but disappointed with its performance on small game. The lead is too hard and does not seem to provide any expansion. I know, this is fine with hardcast bullets on big game, but squirrels can disappear into an old logging "slash" pile too quickly. My son lost a couple squirrels last year that would have been anchored with a softer, expanding bullet.

That's what makes the Paco Kelly tool so good. I'm not so sure on the accuracy improvement, but you can make a huge hollow point. I shoot sub sonics and the womp when it hit's the squirrel is louder than the shot with a 21" barrel. Every now and then it sends the squirrel flying a few foot horizontal off the branch which is always good for grins. Come to think of it they don't flop on the ground with the nasty nose so I guess the extra energy delivered must kill them before they hit the ground.
