if i do it will be a open sight rifle & probably even get a stripper clip hump built up on it to keep with the look


That would be neat! Maybe one of those over size charger humps like on the Peruvian (SP?) Mausers. A scaled down 3 leaf express sight and banded front. I personally would forgo the Hornet because of the clip. I wish I had taken a picture of the James Anderson bottom metal that's going on this action. If you would have seen it I'm sure you would agree. Maybe a 6X45, that would be a nice choice for an open sight rifle too.
