Does anyone have any experience with this particular powder in the 7x33? I have found it to be very accurate with my 22 Hornet.
Any info or response is appreciated!

Thanks , I believe I also ran across some of that data while searching.I've seen Quick Load (computer suggested loads) for the 7x33 with 78 grain bullets for (burn rate in parentheses) the following powders. VV N110 (61), Lil' Gun (62), H110 (63), Win 296 (64), IMR 4227 (65), AA5744 (67), & AA1680 (68). So it appears Lil' Gun falls within the group of powders that could be suitable for the 7X33. However, Quick Load's disclaimer says loads calculated may NOT be above the Minimum or NOT be below the Maximum listed in any reloading manual. If you use a different bullet weight you are adding another unknown as well, but it looks like Lil' Gun is a candidate for some prudent & cautious experimentation in the 7X33. Quick Load gives 15.8 grains as a max load for Lil' Gun, but take that with a grain of salt. Anytime you reload for a round without EXACT & TESTED data, which Quick Loads is NOT, you enter dangerous territory. Using a chronograph & starting well below anything you find listed for the 7X33 would be advisable, as well as a long string tied to the trigger!
Some guns give me bug holesI have only used N 110 for 7x33 with satisfaction, unlike Mick Jagger. I have used Lil gun in the 218 bee. Excellent. This doesn't answer the initial question, but maybe valuable down the road. You can't always get what you want.
