Anyone help me with the 20 Squirrel? What kinda of velocities should one see out of a 20 to 22 inch barrel? How about accuracy since it is really shortening the Hornet case? At the velocities you would see, I am guessing 2400 to 2800 fps, I would think you would see alot of ricochets even with 30 and 32 gr bullets. Appreciate all help here, thanks.
