Winchester Model 1894 222 Hornet Review
Brain Hutchinson - Cogswell, Indiana
I got my Winchester in the hunting section at Gart Sports in Harpster, Indiana. Our favorite rifle is the 6.5 x 55 I picked up online at the NRA store.
My all-time favorite gun shop in Harpster has a Winchester Model 1894 for $199. The best shooting caliber for me is the 6.5 x 55 because it has the best combo of power and speed to make it the most versatile for the different types of game in Indiana. My mom got her 6.5 x 55 online at Cabelas. My friends and I like the 222 Hornet best for deer hunting.
I got my Winchester 6.5 x 55 at the Wiley Outdoor Sports in Harpster. There is a new edition of my new Winchester Model 1894 with the American walnut chambered in 222 Hornet and 6.5 x 55. My most favorite rifle is everything made by Winchester.
The best all around caliber I own is probably the 6.5 x 55 from Bass Pro Shops in Harpster. Hal got his Winchester last fall at Wiley Outdoor Sports in Harpster. Hal said his favorite rifle is the Winchester Model 1894 I got at Wiley Outdoor Sports in Harpster.
One drawback is that huge amounts of power are required to accelerate 222 Hornet projectiles to such speeds. I bought the rifle at a gun show in Harpster with the 6.5 x 55 reloading dies and the bullet mold for a 222 Hornet 550-grain lead bullet.
The best caliber would have to be my 6.5 x 55. I got my Winchester Model 1894 in the hunting section at Wiley Outdoor Sports in Harpster.
