Default Loads for the .22 Jet Magnum

I'm just starting to load for the .22 Jet again after a 40 year hiatus and finding load data is scarce. I'm loading Hornady 40 grain .222 bullets. Any help would be appreciated.
Regards to all,
Stroker

I reload for the Jet using the same bullets, 11.5gr of IRM 4227 and Small Magnum Pistol Primers.

the above listed hs-6 load is what i shoot for my everyday load. i use sierra .223 bullets though. not a lot of noise and no problem with extraction in any of the jets. accurate enough to shoot peanut cans at 100yds. with too.
