Couldn't help myself... Call it a "rebound" buy. I sold a 1903 in 22 Hornet marked "Barreled by Griffin & Howe" at the Kansas City gun show several years back and have regretted it ever since. This one isn't as nice, but it will sooth the pain just a little from that bad decision....  Anyway, this was my first time to purchase from this dealer, everything done online... curious if anyone here has purchased from them before.... https://www.gunsinternational.com/g...-hornet-scoped.cfm?gun_id=102944391#lg-5

If the other one was nicer, that's saying a lot. This is a pretty nice rifle. And I love Fecker scopes.

Here's the only pics I have of the one that got away back in 2016... 2 lever G&H side mount (mounting plate screw heads milled off & blued), checkered bolt knob, checkered stock w/ horn front tip. Trap door butt plate. The previous owner had installed modern 1" rings and I put 7/8" back on it and added a Lyman Alaskan scope. It was part of a large estate of quality rifles that I had the privilege of helping to liquidate. ![[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]](https://i.imgur.com/Kn7QcJr.jpg) ![[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]](https://i.imgur.com/SbJ3VcW.jpg)

I see what you mean. Both really nice rifles, however.
Will you fix that Fecker yourself?

I know a guy in Portland, Or. that fixes crosshairs... my hands are not as nimble as they used to be. I'll put a 12X Unertl on it for the time being... The good thing is that I'm into the Sedgley for half of what I got out of the G&H back then...

I have a binocular dissecting scope that really helps a lot.

What did they do to the bolt shroud? Please post some photos of it when you get the rifle.

Nice Hornet. Looks like a little Fecker Woodchucker scope. Eye relief probably works out better with the Unertl. I love those little woodchuckers, but they work better on single shots or when the rear base is on the bridge. I've got one on a little Martini 218 Bee. There was a lot of interesting rifles on that sale, ah Dan?  John

Yes, John there were some neat things. I did get a Pope barreled '03 done by Gus Pachmayr that is a twin to another one that I had and the Pope barrel numbers are consecutive. Although the auction wrongly described the rifle as a 1924 Int Match '03.
