Thinking the 8 shot 357 opened the window of opportunity for this to happen.

SURE WOULD BE NICE TO HAVE MORE INFO ON THAT MODEL. WHAT YEAR DOES THE SERIAL # PUT THE GUN IN?

I DID A SERIAL # LOOKUP, FOUND SRH #'s UP TO 1/1/14. BASED ON 4,000 A YEAR INCREASE FOR SEVERAL YEARS, THE 553 RANGE WOULD HAVE STARTED LATE LAST YEAR OR EARLY IN 2020, AND 553-03255 COULD BE A VERY, VERY RECENT #. WHO KNOWS, WE MAY BE SEEING MORE OF THESE SOON.

Neat! A friend had the Raging Hornet, heavy but very accurate. I think Taurus also made a 218 Bee version briefly?

I guess I’m kind of slow but I don’t follow the reasoning behind that gun/chambering combo.

I think it's very cool, but not something I'd run out and buy. Perfect gun for an onslaught of zombie prairie dogs.

I had a custom Ruger built in 218 Mashburn Bee. 6 shot, 8" barrel. This gun is a tack driver with absolutely no recoil. 34 grain HP's at 2430 fps. and 40 grain BT's at 2100 fps.

That is just weird enough I like it. Never had a 22 hornet though I dreamed of it as a kid

At this point in my life I’m liking weird guns and calibers...must be the age. I’ve had a hankering to have Reeder build me a 22k hornet on a small frame bh.
Someday......
