BobMt: I have always LOVED the 222 Remington cartridge and most all Rifles made for it.
One I have always craved is an early production offering from Ruger in their #1-B Model.
Seen a couple (2!) but not made a deal on one as yet.
I am excited about your "project Rifle" - I hope it shoots well for you.
I currently own and shoot 6 Varmint type Rifles in caliber 222 Remington - each and every one of them is notably accurate!
Keep us posted on your progress with your "deuce" (222 Remington).
Hold into the wind
