35 R,
You mention that all these bullets do well in your 22/250.
What is it's Twist rate? What are the velocities comparable to what you are getting from the 22 K-Hornet? Are you positive the Hornet is a 1-14 twist?
A wild guess would be to look in this area.
I'm thinking that a 55 grain bullet is a bit heavy for the Hornet at the lower bullet velocities of the Hornet. Would be interesting to try a lighter cast bullet.
I have an excellent article in an old Handloader regarding this subject and will try to dig it out.
Will be back to you.
Regards
