“Since I cannor reload .22...”

Actually, you can. It’s just a more involved and longer process than center fire ammo. If you do some searching online, you can find the company that sells the dies. There’s a few videos and articles on how to go about it.

I never said 22s could not be reloaded, I said I cannot.
If you can, go right ahead. I do not have the time or inclination for that exercise in brain damage.

Sheesh. Some folks just have to show us how smart they are.

I've studied this topic a bit. From what I can tell, a group of reloaders really threw a lot of money (and even more time) at this concept some years ago, but achieved very poor accuracy from their reloaded ammo. Applying the new priming mixture consistently seems to be the stumbling block.

If you really need something in the .22LR power range, it'd be far easier to use a small centerfire like a .22 Hornet and tinker with light loads.
