Default Martini Cadets

I built a 17 Ackley Hornet on an older 22 LR action. It is a hoot to shoot and VERY accurate! It has the problem with scope mounting associated with all the Martini Cadets but is still lots of fun. I picked up a newer Browning Low Wall in 22 Hornet coming into a gun show two weeks ago for 350.00. It might be a candidate for the 17 Ackley Hornet too.
I seem to remember in my books by Grant the Martinis were
called "Tipping Block" or ? Anyway, I do not know if this is correct but it fits.

Aloha, Mark
