Being an avid predator hunter I'm interested in this revolver. Hand gunning preds at close range is a blast. The 22 Hornet is a very nice little pred round if you are saving pelts (still need to stay away from varmint tips). Shot fox and yotes with 45gr SP minimal damage. That was a rifle though. Only 22 Hornet hand gun I fired was a TC Contender, at a range.
I have used the 17 Hornet extensively (necked down 22 Hornet). Nice for what it is, but can be tough on pelts. But the old 22 Hornet is still a great pred round for fox/yotes at the appropriate range.
But as others have said...too much for a revolver (like everything these days) and 22 Hornet is tough to track down.
I inquired out of curiosity with my LGS about this revolver......it's out of stock from all distributers they use, but said their price would be roughly $999.......nope.
I'm almost glad sometimes that medical conditions have kept me out of the hunting fields this season and last season......it's kept my cravings for new equipment to a minimum.
