They are neat, but I'm finding out that .25-20 has no edge on a skillfully wielded Hornet.
I knew two old guys who used one of each as a primary deer rifle in PA way back in the day. They would sit around all night arguing over which was better. My uncle, the Hornet guy, killed 8 deer in a row with one shot apiece. This was in PA back when one per year was the limit, and deer were mighty scarce to boot. The 9th one took the full magazine to kill and I remember my Old Man kidding him that perhaps the .25-20 guy was right all along.
