Is the .22 Hornet a suitable yote gun and a small game gun....i will do heaed shots on the squirrels and rabbits, but would it still blow the bagizzes out of them, or would a .22 mag be better. Thanks a bunch

Default RE: .22 hornet

I have never shot squirrels with a hornet, but have fired a couple thousand rounds at praire dogs. It is a great rifle for small game like rabbits and turkeys. It will do quite nicely on a coyote with proper range and shot placement. Another caliber that I like equally as well is the 218 B but unless you reload it is very costly to shoot.
