Handi beats TC in .22 Hornet in Gun test Mag
« on: January 04, 2007, 01:59:29 PM »
I don't know if anyone gets this but the publication Gun Tests does all kinds of testing of guns ammo ect.  They don't accept advertising and bill themselves as being objective.  This month it was single shot .22 Hornet rifles.  They preferred the Handi rifle.
Accuracy was about the same, but they hated the open sights on TC.  Also did not like the spring ejector in the Handi.  But they loved the Handi price, weight, trigger and feel.
I was going to get a .223 barrell but I might get a .22 hornet.  I have never shot a .22 hornet but they make it sound like a good round.

As Stimpy said, it's been here a while, I've sent it to about 100 people,  the thread is posted in the FAQ.

They complained about the ejector on the Handi and did not mention that the new Handi's have extractors. I was supprised.
