the 22 hornet wont chamber, and the rim is too thick. but i used 22 wcf brass [ formed] that i get from buffalo arms. the bore is about .222 ad graf and sons had .222 bullets [ if think they are from Prvi Partizan ] and they shoot dead center and all in one hole at 25 yds.
the 28 gauge is 2.5" chamber,full choke of course, and i found some shells [ i believe RST had them ] and it patterns well with the pattern centered at point of aim.
i found this little gun in an auction [ on proxibid ] and couldnet resist it....like a lot of my accumulation [ cant call it a collection, that implies a pattern or plan ] i just found it very appealing. doesnt even weigh 5 lbs.
hopefully i will take it out to the remote mine and at least shoot grouse or ptarmigan.
i am in montana right now, when i get back to Alaska, i will take some more pictures.
I think you mean the groove diameter is .222", not the bore. If a .223" bullet will fit in a fired case, then you can also use .223" bullets - by Speer and Hornady.
