just use a RF one, my mate has the same .22 mod on his hornet that I have on my .22lr ..Hi.
I have a. 22 hornet ready and waiting and am just wondering what mods you guys use on yours. I dont really like over the barrel jobs.
If the thread is right i will use my a tec cmm4 rimfire unless you guys can suggest a better not to expensive option
regards pete
I wouldn't use a rimfire mod on a hornet, there not proofed so why risk it.
I have tried plenty of different mods on my Hornet, from a Sac to a T8, a Sac is best for weight, and almost as quiet as the T8
Small Pess muzzle cans are another one to look at, or do what I did and take yourself and your rifle off to see JMS arms and actually
try every mod he has until you find the one you like most, I settled on the Mini-T over barrel one, quiet, no muzzle flash at night, good
balance and light enough. Looking back on the last 2 years of using it I'm still happy with it, but also think I should maybe stayed with
a sac, yes I would have burned a few out by now, but at £35 each as compared to the £230 for the one I have I could afford to.
The Sac is almost as quiet and much lighter.

Most mods are not proofed, and as for a rimmy mod, well the Sac is designed for hornet down .22lr.
I have used one, works great, but limited life, mine lasted about 500 rounds.

Thanks for the replies. Do you think the a tec i have would get burnt as its only ali. It is rated for hornet according the manufactorers web site. I also have my atec cmm4 for my 308 which will obviously cope with the amount of hot gas but may not be as quiet.
Personally , I thought the SAK on the hornet was poor and very noisy
The SAK on my old Hornet was totally f--ked after about 300 shots.. even after 100 rounds I noticed the first couple of baffles in the stack were seriously damaged. after 300 bits of baffle were missing... You can just imagine if a piece of baffle fell down your barrel and then you fire a bullet at 3000 fps over it.
I would go for a ASE SL5 or the ASE CQBS - both of them excellent mods that can be use on other CF that you might have to

Sac designed for a Hornet, to those who say no it isn't look here
I have both an SL5 and a CQBS and would use neither of them on a Hornet, too heavy for the sound moderation you get.
The Pess Mini-T is 300 grams and quitter on the hornet than either of the ASE's
But like the say, it's your choice and your money, but I bought the Hornet as a light to carry and easy to use walkabout rifle
and I'm not compromising that with a heavy mod.
Sac failing in a 100 rounds, loading a bit hot were you, mine outlasted the 400 Remington 35 grain factory round that came with the rifle.

i'd still stick with what Jackson's say about them only being used upto hmr/wmr.
