I asked Butch that Question (his Death)Since it had bearing on my purtchase. He replied His children are active in the business and he plans on passing it on. I met his son and daughter when I was at his shop. If you call his daughter answers the phone. Being a rookie DR owner I talked to butch and emailed on many occasions over 2 years before I purtachsed. He still had all my emails. And expressed if you have any problems concerns or Questions CALL. I bought my gun off the rack. After a couple of hundred rounds I think the stock is 1/4 In to long . I called and asked if it could be shortened and the cost. Butch said I can have ups pick it up at your door cut and return at no cost within a week. Find another DR manufacture that will do that. Every aspect of the rifle I asked about could be changed to my preference all you have to do is ask. How is the fit finish and handling? I can offhand rapid fire put 2 rounds into a bulleye at 25 yards and cover with a 50c peice reload put 2 more in about a 3 inch total group. Add the scope and make under 2 inch 4 shot groups at 100 yards( on the bench) I would love to have a super engraved fancy H&H or similar. Can I afford it no . How dead is dead. A Buff does not care what you are carring he wont give you slack if you have nice engraving, wood, blueing ect. Your DR hase to work everytime even if you drop it fall down , get knocked over ect. So give me function before fancy any day(allthough I like Fancy too) Someone poasted here "when i carry my ###### rifle I am carring history. When I carry my Searcy I am making it.
