Now that I have my Hornet, which has .224 bore and 1-12" twist, I need some small game loads. Who has some experience with it? I will be using jacketed bullets for squirrel and rabbit. If you have anything you have used for turkey please include it too. Barm, So I've got to know... What rifle did you get???? Thanks, Jerry

I know some will hate the Redfield on top, but it is a really nice scope. It is just a little over 12 ounces and has the flexibility of 3-9x, plus it has 2 MOA spaced marks across the windage and elevation. I can dial or hold over with the reticle. I knew I would be shooting Lil Gun loads for groundhogs and reduced loads for small game and wasn't sure how the point of impact might differ. With this reticle I can just hold on a different hash mark to be close enough. The rifle as pictured tips the scale at 7 pounds and 3.6 ounces. ![[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]](https://i.imgur.com/mjA5yk2.jpg) ![[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]](https://i.imgur.com/FtD6Zrt.jpg) ![[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]](https://i.imgur.com/fQQIetI.jpg)
