Killerv: That indeed was/is a steal in todays market.
Good for him.
Many years ago when they were first offered I bought a new heavy barrel Ruger 77/22 Hornet and tried to get it to shoot "well" for me.
It never did and after 2 years I sold it.
I wish I had it back as the technology for getting those 77/22 Hornets to shoot has many folks happy, nowadays, with them.
Best of luck to your friend with his Hornet.
Hold into the wind
