I own Drulov 90/97 target single shot pistol in .22lr. I am interested in "the same" in .22 Hornet. What performance, muzzle blast etc. I will get from 9-10" barrel (it is actually 23 or 24 cm). What is your opinion about that.

I've a 10" barreled Contender in 22 Hornet with a 1-14" twist. I get excellent performance with standard Hornet loads using 40-45 gr bullets in the 2400 fps range. If your action will take it with H110 or Lil'gun you can get int the 26-2700 fps range.

I'm getting a little over 2400 from my 10" contender with 55gr A max. I don't remember the load but I use 4227.

Thank you all, it looks good . . .
