Speaking from experience, a 22 Hornet is very good, but not very forgiving. The 223 will be a lot more versatile and forgiving of marginal hits. And like I said earlier, use the 40 or 45 gr bullets.

Have you thought about the 204 Ruger? I have been using it for about a year and it has been amazing for me. The 221 fire ball is another good choice if you hand load. The 22 Hornet will cost the least if you reload but like someone already mentioned it will not be as forgiving as the other cartridges listed.
maybe you could be right, the 22 hornet could not be as forgiving but it has 85 years in the market
