The Hornet in the UK

In Britain the .22 Hornet has long been a rabbit and fox round for short to medium ranges – quieter and gentler on the meat than bigger centrefires, and with more reach than a .22 rimfire. It started life in the late 1920s and became a commercial Winchester cartridge in 1930.

The Keyring

A slim, light round at about 44 mm long, made from a once-fired case with a seated bullet and fitted with a 25mm split ring.

Other small-calibre rounds: .22 rimfire, .222 Remington, .223 Remington and .22-250.
