    Thanks Henry, I should have recognized the Cadet action. years ago I did install a very heavy 20 inch barrel on a Cadet action and chambered it for the 218 Bee cartridge and
    also reduced the diameters of the firing pin and breech block.

    That is not quite an "issue" Cadet!

    It has a Martini-style tilting block, but that side-lever is something new to me on such an action.

    It could be a very serious customisation job or the work of a rather creative gun-maker / gunsmith.

    That is some fancy "melding" of steel and wood behind the action body!

    So, is this a example of Joe Seeley's work? I think some very nice rifles are coming out of Big Timber!

    That is simply beautifull. I would love to have an action like that as a base to build a lovely little varminter on.
