Upgraded J. STEVENS ARMS Co. “Walnut Hill” Model 417 .22 RF C&R Rifle SCOPE Named after the MASSACHUSETTS SHOOTING RANGE
Description: Upgraded J. STEVENS ARMS Co. “Walnut Hill” Model 417 .22 RF C&R Rifle SCOPE Named after the MASSACHUSETTS SHOOTING RANGE Here we present a C&R Stevens Arms Co. “Walnut Hill” Model 417 Under Lever Rifle, manufactured during its eight year production run between 1932 and 1940 in Chicopee Falls, Massachusetts. This superb 22 LR Rimfire Target Rifle was named, appropriately, for the Woburn, Massachusetts shooting range, "WALNUT HILL", which was established in 1876. This rifle is chambered in .22 Long Rifle Rimfire, a very effective cartridge for target shooting and small game with minimal recoil. This rifle was manufactured in the years just prior to World War II. The “Walnut Hill” was the very last of the Stevens models based on the pre-1900 Model 44 action. It was current in the interwar period, when Stevens was owned by Savage, and was considered a top of the line target rifle, especially for position shooting, except in the prone position. This gun was very competitive with the storied Winchester 52 and the various Remington bolt action rifles. The underlever action made it clumsy for use in the prone position, or it would have been more popular than it was. As mentioned above, this rifle would have been great for target shooting or even hunting small game. Also included it the rifle is a J.W. Fecker scope. The overall condition is very good.
