	Had the opportunity to take this nice old varmint rig built in Ohio by an unknown smith- allegedly by himself for his own collection per previous owner who had obtained rifle from estate of smith in the 1970s. It does have a set trigger and Mann niedner firing pin. Work is nicely done and it is chambered in the R2 Lovell caliber. Previous owner sold a nice amount of reloads and brass with rifle so I was tickled. The rifle shoots great and loves a nice load of 12.5 gr lil gun with 40 gr nosler. I took her out to run the paces on a steel groundhog silhouette target at the farm today. She did not disappoint!

	Very nice rifle! As an aside, we have a Stevens 417(?) that was rebarreled by MS Risley, Risley is the R in the R2 Lovell

	Probably an obvious question, but have you looked under the fore end? When in doubt… Froggie

	Looking under the barrel and the butt plate is always an adventure. I just got a Niedner 22 Hornet on a High Wall. The Niedner # 604 or 904. The 6 or 9 is stamped sideways. My guess is 604 because it has the A. O. Niedner 2 line stamp.
