But here's the thing.

***Go with the 22 hornet like the guy advised and don't look back! It's a fantastic little hummer that you'll love shooting and it will take you out a lot further than the 22 mag. You may want to go with a higher power scope than the 4x you're thinking about since you can shoot a chuck or yote out to 250 yards with it with no problem. I have a Savage break action single shot with a 3-9 on it and it's a shooter. It's identical to the one in this picture I took off the net.
