Thanks. I think the 22 Hornet and 257 Robts qualify as unusual calibers. Some would say rare even.

Great bunch of rifles.

Beautiful rifle and rifles (Shrapnel). What I miss most from that era is not the firearms as much as the advertising that went with them. It was true artwork that made you want to get out and use the products. Today if there is any "artwork" it is a photograph and doesn't evoke any emotions--at least with me. Back then artwork was even used on ammo boxes. Is it lack of talent or imagination? Anyway great looking rifles that will always be classics.
