A rimmed, bottlenecked round with an unusually long neck, normally loaded with a pointed soft point bullet, though both full metal jacket ball and tracer cartridges have been produced for military use. This was derived from the older 0.22 Winchester Centre Fire (WCF) cartridge which was habitually loaded to much higher velocities in Europe than it was in the USA. Various US sportsmen began experimenting with similar improvements and in 1930 Winchester bowed to the public demand and produced the Hornet, which became a popular round for small game shooting.

It has an excellent reputation for accuracy at ranges up to about 300 m, and has been used as a police sniping rifle round in the past. Compatible platforms include m4 and M6 Aircrew Survival rifles; suitably chambered sporting rifles and pistols.
