    Haven't asked for it. I'd never use his services again so see no benefit in consulting him. Happy to pay for another smith to assess and repair though

    Arthur's workmanship was below my expectations from a well known smith. Even left burring on barrel and thread was rough and agricultural.

    There's dead rabbits, dying a slow and painful death, and dead rabbits from head shots. I'm capable of the latter so I need a rifle that is too. I should also be able to compete with it
