John, I was hoping you would chime in. Your feedback was exactly what I was hoping for. I also have a 1V in .22-250 but I've already worn that one out once. It seems to me that buying a Hornet will be fun and cheaper in the long run.
I just reread the chapter on the Modern Hornet in Obsessions of a Rifle Looney and a 1B Hornet with V-Maxs and Lil-Gun sounds like a lot fun.
