JohnK, those two foxes look amazing, and with the rifle there quietly in the background makes for truly magnificent photos.
Tony did a very nice job on that wood set, and the rest of the rifle. Wish he was still working. I can remember getting that wood like it was yesterday, even though I've milled several hundred trees since. It's great that you use the rifle in the field.
I've spent most of this month moving blanks out of the way of a bastard of a fire around 20000Ha size. Still not nearly done. Getting a bit tired and sore from it and I'll admit to occasionally wondering if the hard work and 10-20+ year lag time is really worth it all. Especially when young, force dried blanks are so commonly used. JohnK, I reckon your snaps provide me the answer to that.
Hey mate, Tony is a real craftsman. It is a shame he retired.
Glad you like the photos. I do like dablying with a camera.
There is nothing like a piece of lovely timber in a rifle.
