elwood Report post Posted August 5, 2019 I just converted a 77/22 Hornet to K-Hornet and am splitting a lot the cases during fire forming. From all the research I've done it looks like my Nosler brass needs to be annealed prior to fire forming. Does anyone have an annealing machine that can handle this little case and is willing to do a few for me? I will gladly pay for the service and if it solves my problem will have 150 pieces that need to be done. PM or my cell is 520-237-9643. Thank you. -Eliot Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cjl2010 Report post Posted August 6, 2019 Spent some time googling the 22 K hornet. pretty sweet cartridge. What do you use your rifle for? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MULEPACKHUNTER Report post Posted August 6, 2019 My machine will work as well if needed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
elwood Report post Posted August 6, 2019 Thank you both very much. I ended up finding a co worker with the same machine cjl has and we are going to give it a try down here. I'm trying to find a fur friendly round for 20-200 yds on fox, bobcats and coyotes.... Not sure if it exists but I'm gonna give it a try this year. If not K Hornet, I might try a 19 Badger or 20 Vartarg next winter. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
