Thread size for hornet oal case

[spitfire_er]

I need to know what thread size hornady uses for their hornet size cases. I know the standard is 5/16-36, but I need to make an adapter for the hornet case, so I need to find the right size tap and die to buy.

I can check tonight....unless someone in the meantime can check for you. That's the best I can do at the moment.

Thanks, I just need to get it ordered in the next day or so.

I checked mine and it's 12-32 UNEF
The threads are absolutely 32 checked with a thread gauge.
The O.D of the threads are .215 which would be the 12-32 in the machinist handbook.
Hope that's what you're looking for
