I'm always a little baffled when people talk about the inaccuracy of the .22 Hornet. I've only owned 4, but the only one that shot 56-shot groups as LARGE as an inch at 100 yards was a T/C Contender carbine. The others have been a CZ and a pair of Ruger single-shots, a 1B and a No. 3. All regularly grouped under 3/4" for 5 shots at 100, and with the right load in ammo put together carefully 1/2".

The .17 Hornet is at least as accurate, probably a little more so.
