Default Hornet project

Having owned the Hornet in both 54 and 70 trim I've always thought the action size to cartridge size was disconcerting. Sorta like having a Cadillac with an inline 4 cyclinder under the hood. Both of mine functioned fine and were average shooters. I did benefit greatly upon selling them. If I had that action it would get a premium barrel in a #2 profile, nice piece of walnut, ebony fore end and steel grip cap, inletted Niedner butt plate and a good high gloss blue. Classic look with a little Super Grade flavor.
