I must say I'm impressed with the Verney-Carron offerings after handling them and discussing them with Ken Buch last weekend. It appears that this company will accommodate most any desire at a reasonable price and in a reasonable delivery time.

There are quite a few choices of how the action is to be filed, what caliber to make, as well as stock design. The actions appear to be quite strong and well fit. Ken's enthusiasm is contagious.

If I were in the market for a current production DR I would seriously consider this maker. Or shall I say When I find myself in the market. . . (Ken and I had a very interesting discussion about a proposed V-C rifle in .22 Savage HP with an extra set of .303 Brit. barrels.)
