    Hornet suspressors.

    what's everyone using for a .22 or .17 hornet suppressor, good quality rim fire magnum or a smaller center fire over barrel.
    Looking at threading my .17 hornet, bit undecided on type of suspressor.

    Did you shorten barrel, yours is an CZ American, correct, I have a.17 varmint here, and the .17 hornet American, in my sea can, should be off the coast, of NZ somewhere near Auckland. keeping one, selling the other.
    I have an email into Darren, waiting on a reply.

    I will update the .17 hornet thread, as have a 25gr hollow point, Trail boss, load worked out that matches 50m point of impact, for my ADI 2207 full power load, aursum,

    I use a MAE all stainless steel can on my CZ527 22 Hornet , barrel chopped down to 20 inches from 22 , I love it , the model is the 22mag model , I asked if it was OK for a hornet , and they said YES , I see now , its rated up to 223 .
    I find the MAE 22mag can is just the right size for a hornet sized cartridge , so I would have a look at MAE suppressors .
