Just FYI, today I shot some of these loads as a test.
The internet cowboys theory on Lil'Gun throat erosion wasn't from heat. It was forcing cone abrasion of unburned kernels of powder. My Ruger #3 .22 Hornet shoots 1/2" groups with LG loaded at 100% available case capacity. Brian Pearce wrote an article several years back about Lil'G and the Hornet, somehow he is able to get a full 1.0 gr. more powder in his cases than I can. I have found it (in my guns) accurate in Hornet, 32 mag, 357, 41 mag, 44 mag. and 454, I use it almost exclusively in my full power handgun hunting loads. I have not tried it in 327 Fed yet but expect it to perform well.
