Do you shoot the .22 hornet caliber? What rifle do you have that shoots it? And what game do you hunt with it.
Gust got my first .22 hornet. Its a CZ 527 fs. I plan to use it for varmets and small wild hogs. Here it is.
I have a nice little, lightweight Daniel Fraser (Scotland) falling-block single shot in .22 Hornet. It weighs 5 lb with scope, and has a 26" barrel.
The Hornet will definitely do for what you plan to shoot. (The Eskimos in Alaska kill Polar Bear and Walrus with the.22 Hornet!!)
One of my favorite loads is 4 grains of Unique and the Lyman .225415 cast gascheck 45-grain bullet. This load equals the .22 long rifle, is accurate, and good for target practice and shooting pigeons around the barn!
