I had a 218 Mashburn Bee many years ago. I can't remember the model, probably 43 Winchester. I lost the magazine for it and couldn't find a replacement. Finally got tired of looking and sold it. I've done some pretty stupid things, that was one of them.
I could have used that rifle down on the farm in high school. Lots of 100 yd jack rabbits.
In the P-F basket of deplorables.
My grandpa liked the small 22 centerfires. He had a Ruger No. 3 he’d restocked to look more like a scaled down No. 1 in 22 Hornet. I wish I’d known that he was selling it. He cast some bullets for it but I don’t recall much more than that. I do have the 221 Fireball he had made on a 461 Sako action.
To get my Jagdschein when I was stationed in Germany I had to pass a shooting test using a centerfire rifle. The instructor brought his .22 Hornet for us to use, since that was the minimum cartridge permitted for roe deer. It was a sweet shooter.

I'm glad this exists. I would love a "nice" - wood stock & blued steel Hornet in either bolt action or single shot.
The only trigger time I ever got on a Hornet was an old Ruger bolt action. It was a nice gun.
