Well the Farky went back, but I guess you kept the Whitworth Yugoslavian Mauser (pretending to be quite British, you know).

"Back in 2000 I made a decision to try and continue my shooting by using double rifles only, and to gradually sell off my bolt action rifles."

By the way, I found that thread where you swore them off. Don't know whether to put it back to the forum now or hold it in reserve. I think I'll wait and see.

"I've just bought another double which I'd been trying to track down for about 10 years or so and now that I have it I have doubles in suitable calibers to handle all my shooting needs, I hope!"

How can we be sure you have been true to your word? I'll bet you have shot that Whitworth Yoooooooooogo booooolt guuuun!!!!! Maybe even shot it at gaaaaaame!!!

"A bolt rifle is usually much easier and less time consuming to strip, clean and oil than a double.
Anyway I have found a way of overcoming these issues and am looking forward to giving total commitment to my doubles!"

Repeat after me, "I will not back-slide."
