Yes, its very good ammo. Because the hornet is a very old cartridge, and isn't chambered in many new builds. Its a excellent cartridge in single shot rifles and hand guns at moderate ranges. It isn't worth the effort for ammunition makers to devote equipment to make ammo that might set on shelves for a while, or not he ordered at all.
Thanks! We just bought these two CZ hornets in 22 and 17 about 3 years ago. At that time there were several brands and grains available. Like everything else it has disappeared.
Frustrating!!! Both of these guns are super shooters!

Be glad you can get it. I shoot PPU in a few rifles. Like their ammo myself. Their prices have gone up just as everything else.
Is ammo.com a good place to order from?
Buy as much of the PPU ammo you can afford. The brass can be converted into17 Hornet.
If they take a credit card you should be ok. If its other forms of payment, I'd look elsewhere.
I have a CZ 527 in 6.5 Grendel. I love that rifle.
Yes they are sure nice rifles. My two boys have shot some .4" and .6" groups at 200 yards with them. My reloads are pretty mild also. Figured we might as well treat them nice and keep them nice.
That is good to know. I just ordered some of the 22 hornet. I also ordered some Hornady 17 hornet also. With what we have and what I ordered we will have about 250 brass to work with. Hopefully with mild loads and being careful that will last many rounds.

I've got a 60 or 70 year old Savage Hornet that still shoots little groups. You're not gonna hurt your CZ's but reloading for them is sure the way to go. PPU does sell their brass and it's not too expensive. Powder Valley and Graf's both sell it when they can get it. I bought 6 or 8 bags of it last winter or early spring. Just have to keep checking, they'll get some. Enjoy !
I got Hornady brass a few months ago. They had about five packs. I just got one. But I have found the brass around here a lot recently.

The hornet is amazing with 35 and 40 gr vmax's. You'll have to modify the CZ magazine to shoot the 40 vmax's since they are slightly to long.

I ordered from there a few years ago. My go to is SGAMMO.COM. And I am sure there are other places as well. But SG is always quick. Sorry for the late response. Not sure how it happened. I try to stay up on notifications.
