Mucking around with them is the most fun you can have with you pants on and there is nothing more satisfying than taking a bunny or fox at medium distance with something that your grandfather used.
Any right thinking person knows you need both. The Hornet is ideal for smaller properties as well. Plus serious consideration should be given to a 17 Hornet as well.
