Hornet and Magnum
The 22 hornet is a small cased 22 centerfire that has about a 2700-2800 ft velocity with the standard loading. The 22 magnum is a rimfire cartridge with a velocity of approx 2000 ft per second with the standard 40 gr bullet. They are two different animals and they aren't even close in performance. Personally I really like the Hornet and have 2 of them..one is a Ruger 77/22H na the other is a T-C Contender in 22 hornet(14 in bbl. Neat cartridge for certain.
