Hornets are very well suited to ss actions. My fav is the 1885 and a close second is the ruger no 3. I bought a cz awhile back but haven't shot it much but it might be the one. I would maybe look at the rem 799 if you can find one.. I had a ruger 77 Horne for years bought one of the very first ones to hit the shelf. My son learned to shoot with it and I have since given it to him. It wasn't paticulary accurate but good enough for its effective range of 150 yds.. I don't think you would be disappointed with one as long as you don't expect it to be a 220 swift..
