Hornady just introduced a 218 Bee load with 45 gr HP last year.Does anyone make new ammo for the .218 Bee?
An Improved cartridge has the shoulder blown out to increase case capacity and velocity. The 218 Mashburn Bee, for example, has a shorter neck, the shoulder is blown forward and shoulder angle is sharper. Performance approaches 222 Remington. There are other improved Bees, just google it.I'm not sure what an improved bee is
I think its a mashburn bee. I'd still like to have one someday in either versionThe Black spot - I'm not sure what an improved bee is. I do think you can spin the bolt face out on a mod m25 savage 22 hornet to fit a 218. The mags will have to be milled out but you have to probably rework the mags to get your hand-loaded hornets to work well anyway. I had to. The barrel wouldn't be much of a problem.
