Show us your .22 Hornets...

[Bo Diddley]

Here's mine, a 1986 Anschutz, model 1432. I use it for varmints up to red fox size, shame we are not allowed to use it on small deer in the UK. I'd like to shoot Muntjac with it.

Thats a cool stock!

I like those Morgan adjustable recoil pads!!

 

[rickiesrevenge]

I need a stock for one of those actions! Or two stocks!!!!

It was just a tired old lacquered stock originally, but I could see it had a little quality with the tiger stripes near the pistol grip.
So one spring when the weather warmed up a little, I decided to strip the old finish completely, and gave it an oil finish using "Slippery Dicks" finishing kit.
I also had the adjustable cheek riser done by an amazing, helpful guy on Airgunforumuk. Nobby has put his adjustable riser magic on loads of timber stocks. I put the butt pad on to give me a nice LOP.
Thanks for the kind words.
Merry Xmas to ya Rick

I would love to own something like this, Charles Lancaster .22 Hornet, assisted-opening double rifle, what a beautiful thing to hunt with.

What do one of those run??

 

[Bullseye69]

My 22 hornets.
The Martini is a 22 K hornet and the Ruger is the all weather 22 Hornet.

 

[Bo Diddley]

What do one of those run??

That one was sold at Holt's auction, the estimate was, I think, 4k - 6k GBP, not sure what the hammer price was.

I have an Anschutz stock here for a 222Rem, it looks like the inlet would work for one of those. I have a left hand version of one of those in 22 Hornet

Hmmm perhaps a 410 can be converted to Hornet.

 

[Bullseye69]

You didn't have to say that!

I think it's quite a popular conversion. Although I'd think it would be a challenge to get a SxS shotgun sleeved into a .22 Hornet to get both barrels shooting to the same POA. Someone will tell me if it's easy or not.

Wish you were closer

Yes I did as I bought the book about turning shotguns into double rifles, do you want to borrow it??

 

[kiwishooter]

I bought the stock to use as a pattern, I've been gathering parts for a stock duplicator so I can see a couple of NZ Walnut stocks for Anschutz Match 54 actions

Nah....now I want my own copy.

 

[kiwishooter]

Nah....now I want my own copy.

That’s the spirit, I want pics when you build the hornet double rifle

 

[Bullseye69]

Nah....now I want my own copy.

So researched the book. Is it a green one by W.E. Brown?
