most of those were rimfire as well... & the actions aren't known for there strength... not strong enough to go to a 22 Hornet, or even safely convert to the 32 centerfires
nice old rifles in thier own rite though... if I had one, I'd probably have my machinist buddy make me a 22 lr chamber insert & reline the barrel unless it were in good enough shape to leave as a safe queen
