I have a Handi-rifle in Hornet with a 3x9 Leoplod on it and it will shoot inside of an inch with factory Winchester hollow points. Doesn't seem to like the soft points quite as well. I had a Browning Micro that was the best shooting Hornet I've ever even heard of! Almost one hole groups (100 yds.) with Factory loads. (Again, Win. hollow points.) Remington loads have not shot well in any Hornet so far. I also had a Ruger Hornet and it wouldn't shoot withing 3-4inches with anything. Just a bad one I guess. Traded it in for the Browning.

Wish I were still handloading as I would love to build a low powered load for this gun. Oh well.....

Good luck with the handi. They are really fun guns.......Mine has had the trigger job and forend work.
