My next new rifle will probably be a heavy barreled one in .204. I have it's big brother, the .222Rem. Mag. with which I'm quite pleased. I understand the .204 is even better. I had been thinking of a .22Hornet in a CZ rifle, but the Hornet can be temperamental in the best of times so I'll likely pass on that one. Best wishes.

calsibly, I have a 22 Hornet in the Ruger 7722HV, It shoots like a dream and is, as or more accurate as my bigger center fire varmint rifles, and its tiny powder appetite makes reloading for it very economical. I dont find it Tempermental at all! And to make it better, find a gunsmith with a 22KHornet reamer and your brass trimming chores all but disapear. plus you get a few more FPS out of the little squirt!:)

say the same to her about her shoes-----
Mine counters-- with shoes are only $200 your rifles are $1000+
my response--Your shoes only last one"season" 6 months tops- I have rifles in there that I had before you ( 13 years) came along.
She counter- I wouldn't mind you having so many if you actually used them
My response- I don't get a chance to use them because you wont let me go away hunting anymore (2 kids under 2 years)
Her- fine go then-
