Just acquired a dandy Ruger M77/22 in .22 Hornet. Starting the process of adding to my reloading gear to be able to successfully load this caliber.
Just realized I may need a powder funnel which is small enough to seal around the top of the neck of a 22 cal. cartridge. Looked at Midway and saw a Lee powder funnel for 22 to 45 cal cartridges. Went to look and I have been using one of them for years for my .243, .270 and 30-06.
When I checked the fit over the mouth of a .22 Hornet casing, there is not a tight fit, and I suspect it will be spilling powder down into my loading block.
Can someone with .22 cal. loading experience point me in the right direction to come up with the appropriate funnel ( I don't do progressive loading)?
Would appreciate any help offered, thanks.
