What? A problem with the Hornet on varmits? You guys do not have a gun for each varmit? My 218 Bee #1 and Martini are my turtle guns. I shoot on 4 catfish ponds and a stocked beaver pond in the spring and summer. The Hornet and Bee are perfect turtle guns. Out to 100 plus yards a head shot on a turtle is a snap and the report does not bother folks. I use 15 gr of H-4227 and the 35 gr Berger in the Bee.
Just go find a fish pond in a remote location and get ready for fun. Ed

.22 Hornet Reloading
I have two Hornet rifles that shoot less than MOA. One is a Westley Richards break-open rook rifle I rescued. The other is a Ruger No. 3. I found the best bet with either rifle is to seat the bullets to touch the rifling. I have been shooting the Hornady 40 gr. V-Max, CCI BR-4 primers, and 11.8 Grs. of Lil Gun. Does the job in either rifle.
This summer I have to work with a Winchester low-wall I found in .22 K-Hornet and see if it will shoot or if it is new barrel time. Little guns are fun.
