I have just recieved a barrel for my Contender in 17 hornet. What is a good load for squirrel hunting? I will also be fireforming cases and my use them for squirel hunting.

Thanks

Scott

Absolutely use your fireforming loads for hunting. If yours is anything like my hornet, it will shoot fantastic with the fireform loads. I can't recall my exact fireforming load and will have to check my notes to be sure. I have used both 1680 and 4227 for fireforming and had great accuracy with both. I use a 20 grain STarke with my hornet and plan on using it on squirrels as well.
