The .22 Hornet fills the gap between such popular vermin/predator cartridges as the .22 WMR and the .223 Remington. In regards to muzzle velocity, muzzle energy, and noise, it is well suited to vermin and predator control in relatively built-up areas. The Hornet's virtual absence of recoil has made it even quite popular among deer hunters in some areas, although it is generally regarded as very underpowered for deer unless bullet placement is absolutely precise. Many jurisdictions such as the Netherlands, the UK, and most states in the USA currently prohibit the Hornet for use on deer.

  • The .22 Hornet is a vermin, small-game and predator centerfire rifle cartridge. 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 5.7x28mm. The .22 Hornet is also known as 5.6x35mmR.
