I thought I'd post a few pics of a project Martini that started life as 22 Hornet, It then got rechambered to 218 Bee but a bulge developed in the chamber. I then decide to throw on an 2nd hand Ruger 223 barrel a mate donated.

Forend timber need to be shorten a bit to match the 'New' 18inch barrel. I'll also refinsh the timber and install the recoil pad in the coming weeks. I had the chamber reamed with the tuff as 40gr BT projectile in mind, so 50-55gr SP proj could also comfortably be used without robbing too much powderspace.

Whilst not a classic looking rifle, it is a gun taht I will use on small game.
