Why arent 22 hornets made in lever guns

Build the Zipper. More power, flatter trajectory, and it fits with only minor modifications to the action. Adapting a 336 to 22 Hornet would be a nightmare.

Why not build a .219 Donaldson Wasp?

Why not get a 221 Fireball and forget the old 22 caliber cartridges ? But the 221 round is not made for leaver action rifles.

"Why arent 22 hornets made in lever guns?"

Umm, how about no demand for the cartridge in any kind of gun?

I'd look for a 25-20 there should be some of the nice older lever actions still around.

Those 25-20 model 92 Winchesters must be scarce as hens' teeth. I managed to find a Savage sporter in 25-20, but no lever guns. It's a swell little round for woods loafing.
