I sight the Hornet in 1" high at 100 yards and that puts me about 1 to 1-1/2 inches low at 200 yards. I limit my shots on ground hogs to 200 yards. I like the Hornet because it is pretty quiet for a fairly fast little cartridge. The 22 Hornet does not rattle the windows so I use it a lot for a barn lot rifle.
I am going to build a new rifle by necking either the Hornet or the 218 Bee down to 17 caliber and shoot the 20's. That should be a barn burner with mimimal noise level. Tom.
