Hornet Sting!!!(PICS)
« on: December 17, 2009, 10:18:43 AM »
You gotta love the 22 Hornet. I recently give my Encore 16-1/4" F.R.O. 22 Hornet a new wood set made from Black Walnut. The forearm mounted with a Strattons Customs H-Bar. I use mine for target and turkey hunting.

Very nice gun Dave. Just curious, why the porting on a 22 Hornet ?

Wish we could hunt turkeys here with a handgun. Would love to use my Hornet.

     Dave, As a real fan of the Hornet, I got to know.  With the brake and the longer, heavier barrel and frame(Encore), and, the big, heavier scope can you watch the bullet impact through the scope....would be way cool if you could.   BTW The furniture is fantasic as always.  Walt  :D
Also...Hope you missed the brunt of this blizzard....hit us about dead center.

David D;

Very class set-up.  If I was a turkey, this is what I would want to be shot with... ???
