Equipped with a Marble’s Goss receiver rear sight and a target peep front, the No. 417 offers precise sight alignment for disciplined marksmanship. The rifle's ergonomic stock features a full pistol grip and a wide beavertail forend, designed to anchor securely in the shooter's hand or a bench rest for added control and reduced fatigue during extended shooting sessions. Built on the No. 44 action, the rifle utilizes a falling-block mechanism that is smooth, simple, and time-tested. With standard Stevens markings and period-correct appointments, this rifle is not only a capable shooter but also a fine example of American gunmaking heritage. Collectors and enthusiasts alike value the No. 417 Walnut Hill as both a functional target rifle and a tangible link to the golden age of precision rimfire shooting.
