Flat or round bolt handle JD ?I have dads .22 hornet Bruno Fox Mod 2 ... its a laser to 200 yards with a 35gr V-max... Maybe 1/4 inch drop if that.The projectiles construction makes up for the lighter weight as they don't leave much to the imagination on impact
I used to use a .17 Ackley Hornet Improved as a Rabbit/Fox rifle. 10 power Leupold, Harris Bi-pod. It was built on a Brno double trigger action with a #7 Hart barrel. It was capable of 1/2 MOA groups out to 200 yards. It had a beautiful 26 lpi checkered Walnut stock. This was before the .17 Rem was widely available and the .17 rimfire hadn't been heard of. Much over 200 yards and the .220 Swift Ruger 77 was used.
