Have done a lot of testing (just for the heck of it) with Lil'Gun over the past couple of years with various bullet weights. 12.0gr is the recommended start load with 13.0grs being max and basically a full case for all bullet weights (35-55gr). Found plenty of useful, different bullet weight loads. Lil' Gun is a good solid powder with higher velocities and lower pressures than other powders, especially in the lighter bullets. Some claim it's a bit dirty, but I don't think it's all that bad. Still think Win680 was the best powder for a Hornet but was discontinued about 10 years ago.
