As you can see, it's of good quality - nice little rifle.

If loaded similarly to the old .22WCF, ie: cast 38 to 45gr. but with TrailBoss powder instead of black powder, the .22 Hornet makes an REALLY fun grouse gun for head shooting grouse or for training kids to shoot.

BTW Phil - perhaps this little gun, stock shortened for a youngster would make a GREAT first CF rifle for a grandchild, sometime in the future? It appears to be a worthy rifle for just such a project, since it only has the single locking lug.
