The receiver is squared, better to accept sight mounts and scope rings. The stock has a Monte Carlo comb, and the handiwork on these rifles is excellent. Controls are large and easy to manipulate. Unusual for a civilian sporter is sling swivels. For whatever reason, the Sportco Hornet was never popular and production has ceased by the early 1970s.

After World War 2 they concentrated on civilian design; even during the interwar period, many of their designs were for civilians. The High Velocity is one of those rifles, produced from the early 1920 to World War 2. The rifle was named for the fast, heavy-caliber ammunition it fired. The High Velocity has a one-piece stock with machine checkering on the semi-pistol grip and fore-end; it is made from walnut. External metalwork is blued. Sights consist of a 3-leaf adjustable rear and a ramp front. It features a rotary detachable magazine and a butterknife bolt handle. The fore-end of the stock tapers to about halfway to the end of the barrel, which is 23.5-inch inches.

While you do not get as exact a rifle in all parts, it does allow for interchangeable parts, something Merkel has done little of over the years. The barrel also has an interesting feature for a Merkel gun – it is both switch-barrel and uses a floating barrel once locked in. (A special wrench comes with the rifle for this purpose.) The action may be cycled without chambering a round, depending on how far the wrist switch is moved. In addition, the bolt action of the RX-Helix is such that pulling the bolt back moves the bolt twice as far – for example, pulling back the bolt enough to cycle a .22 WMR round is enough to cycle a 7.62mm NATO round. The cocking lever is textured and is spoon-shaped. The Safebolt system is used; the rifle can be fired only if a round is in place and the weapon is cocked, and the bolt down on a round. Walnut root is used for the stock. The action is fairly complicated; for example, a pair of squeeze flanges must be pulled to the rear, after which the magazine release may be pushed. Despite the complexity of operation, field stripping is a simple three-step process with no tools requited. Metal is blued. The scope mount was designed especially for the RX-Helix, but can take most scope mounts. Iron sights front and rear are provided. The action allows for any short action to be switched with another short action, and the same goes for magnum and standard-action rounds. Barrel length is 20 inches for a short-action, 22 inches for a standard-action, and 24 inches for a Magnum action. They are tipped by a target crown.
