I have everything needed to shoot the .22 Hornet except a suitable rifle.
I have an Encore and a NEF Handi rifle. A CZ bolt action is also a consideration.
The Handi rifle is so simple and handles so nice, but the trigger is less than perfect, and accuracy would probably be less than the other two. Also it would have to be sent in for fitting. The price is right though, probably less than a 100 buckaroos all said and done.
The Encore is the leading choice with MGM as my favorite barrel maker. I could get it drilled and tapped just the way I want it and the Shilen blanks they use are second to none.
The CZ would be nice. I love my two rimfire CZs, plus it would be a repeater.
So I'm asking experienced Hornet shooters to chime in with ideas and things I havn't thought of.
Thanks.
