Been a few months since Horizon started making these more available.
Anyone shooting one? What ammo?
Factory loads showing up.

They gonna shoot, it’s good parts and Horizon has proven time and time again they build a good rifle.

Pretty good price on the Vandal, not sure who make the barrel though. I bet it is a good one.
A friend just bought a Fierce 22 Creed, initial results are not the best.

Thanks guys. I went down this rabbit hole already when the .22 Creed first came out. I need to stay off Youtube.

I've been loading a lot of 22 Creedmoor ammo lately. It's a great little hot rod round, for sure!

I have sighted in a dozen or so Vandals and a couple Venatic’s over the last few months and they have been very consistent. I am pretty sure the Venatic series gets Benchmark barrels but the Vandal I am not sure of?
I know during past few DSC events Derrick said they usually move 15-20 rifles and this year over 350 sold mostly thanks to 22 Creedmoor.
The 22CM ammo sales are crazy too….if they can convince Hornady to load the new
62gr ELD-VT bullet in the 22 Creedmoor that’s going to be a winner for sure.
I am sure it will happen just not sure how fast. I would guess Hornady won’t be too keen to have folks comparing that bullet in the 22 ARC versus the 22 Creedmoor.

what I'm looking for: has anyone bought a Horizon .22 Creedmoor yet? I have two of them. Both shoot 1/2” or better. They are also really good looking guns.
