Savage 23D - 22 Hornet.

Free to a go home (i.e. for RFD fees only) is my Savage 23D in 22 Hornet.
The rifle is fair condition and is at least 75 years old but I honestly don't know how much life is left in the barrel. Additionally, a deep clean with C2R has uncovered what looks like pitting in the barrel but it still shot well the last time I shot it at Cawdor which was a few months ago. The magazine (4 rounds) can be a bit temperamental - I think I've sorted it but could it probably do with some more tinkering - generally I have two in the mag and one in the chamber. It's not threaded but has a threaded adapter fitted (1/2 UNF) which has proved to be solid and has remained in situ since I've owed it and worked well with a T8 reflex moderator. I have plenty of once fired brass that will accompany the rifle and about 136 rounds of expanding ammunition that can be sent separately at cost.
Reason - With my 222, I really don't need it any more and I'm looking to free up a slot.
