    By the time supply gets back to normal rampant inflation will keep the prices moving further from reach anyhow. Not just ammunition. Living is about to get real expensive

    I always take a rabbit for the farmer's dog. The beast of an animal swallows it whole more or less like a crocodile and it's not dead yet.

    You won't need a jig but you may have to make some slave pins to hold things together while you position them in the housing. 800 wet & dry is still quite coarse for a nice trigger pull. Try some...

    Great to see you are sticking with the 6x45 and creating a lovely rifle with that dream walnut. Top skills & workmanship.

    Thanks Von Gruff Knives kind of you to say. I’m very happy with the blank, turns out all the nice stuff was hidden inside. So very rewarding once the finish starts going on!

    And so after 89 1/4 hours of planing, chiselling, scraping, sanding and much thinking and looking, here is what I have. This is after the first ‘base coat’ of oil, which now needs to dry a couple of...
