About the Manufacturer
The company who brought to life "the Gun that Won the West" is the same company who today continues to supply sportsmen with the best sporting ammunition in the world.Founded in 1866, Winchester is one of the world's most widely recognized and respected brand names. For more than 140 years, the name "Winchester" has come to mean many things to many people. To most folks it means ammunition and the Gun that Won the West. For many others, however, it also rekindles images of fine hand tools and cutlery, fishing tackle, the classic artwork and hunting traditions. To encourage the preservation of wildlife habitat, Winchester is a major sponsor of conservation organizations such as Ducks Unlimited and Quail Unlimited. And it's a major backer of sporting clays and other clay target shooting games.
About the 22 Hornet
The .22 Hornet or 5.6×35mmR is a varmint, small-game, predator, and competition centerfire rifle cartridge commercially introduced in 1930. It is considerably more powerful than the .22 WMR and the .17 HMR, achieving higher velocity with a bullet twice the weight. The Hornet also differs very significantly from these in that it is not a rimfire but a centerfire cartridge. This makes it handloadable and reloadable, and thus much more versatile. It was the smallest commercially available .22 caliber centerfire cartridge until the introduction of the FN 5.7×28mm. The .22 Hornet fills the gap between such popular varmint/predator cartridges as the .22 WMR and the .223 Remington. In regard to muzzle velocity, muzzle energy and noise, it is well suited to vermin and predator control in relatively built-up areas.
