Pappy,
Have owned numerous .22 Hornets and K-Hornets over the years, but don't have any these days. For my purposes (mostly varmint hunting) I eventually decided the .17 Hornady Hornet worked better. This realization took a while, but eventually I realized my .22 Hornets weren't getting used in the field much.
You sold your #1?!!!
What was the final round count, and did your bore scope ever show signs of erosion?
I’ve wanted a 17 Hornet for a while now (measured in years I guess) but knowing you made the switch officially seals the deal.
