Interesting combo. Be handy for if that trophy popped up while dangerous game hunting, but I guess the .416 Rigby could take care of that anyway.

You should be able to adjust the Hornet to the sight picture of the scope when it is sighted for the 7x65R. Then put a witness mark on the drilling and Hornet extractor to insure you install it the same each time.I really wonder how it is regulated?
My drilling with the 22 Hornet insert in one barrel, 16 gauge shotgun of course is no problem on the other side. And 7x65R underneath.
I find it really challenging to find small game standing at the correct ranges all the time
Larger, even mod sized game allows for a bitvof deviation. However a smaller critter that one wants to use the 22 Hornet on can be challenging.
Yes, the insert can be rotated on an eccentric to move the poi. J.J. regulated it for me.You should be able to adjust the Hornet to the sight picture of the scope when it is sighted for the 7x65R.

I do not have a Hornet insert, so have never been tempted to use one beyond about seventy yards. Mine are all either 22 LR or 22 Mag and those regulate beautifully to the drillings in which they are used to that more limited range. Between Germany and the States, I would guess the mag has taken three or four dozen foxes and four coyotes off the place here in Texas.Yes, the insert can be rotated on an eccentric to move the poi.

But there is so much difference in the Hornet and 7mm drop that it is very difficult to keep track of holdover at various ranges.
Really cool setup. Just not very practical when out hunting. I think a standard drilling with shotgun barrels over a rifle is much more practical.
Are they full length inserts or the shorter versions?I do not have a Hornet insert, so have never been tempted to use one beyond about seventy yards.
