In October 2016 I was invited to a stalking rifle competition held at a beautiful remote location in Kentucky. It required the use of a single shot rifle of a caliber that would be considered a "stalking rifle caliber" loaded only with lead bullets using either black powder or smokeless. I entered the competition using my Army & Navy Farquharson Link to A&N Farquharson Thread loaded with the nitro-for-black loads I discussed on the linked thread.

There were several other members of NitroExpress at this event, one of whom was the winner (not me)!

This morning I was thinking back on how much fun that stalking rifle shoot had been, so I pulled up the photographs of the event. There's one photograph that's absolutely breathtaking. Let me share it.

Huvius, does this get your attention? Yes, there were some outstanding single shot rifles at this event!
