N110 will give top velocity over the N120 with 20gns bullets however I do think the N120 helps with the 25gns bullets.

I have also been using Ramshot Enforcer recently as I have half a stone of the stuff and it gives spec velocities also.

With the 20gr Vmax in 17Hornet, Quickload suggests a max of 9.4gr N110 at OAL 1.723" will attain 3623fps.

I loaded to OAL 1.7530" (because that was shooting well with same bullet, different load) and worked up to 9.6gr N110, which yields 3525fps.

This is slower than an accurate load I have already developed, so I haven't pursued it further... Yet.

I haven't tried pistol primers, though it was suggested by "a chap at the range!"

I'm using DO63 for the 25grVmax. H322 was as accurate but quite a bit slower.
