the stalking rifle is ready, old plan was to have time until autumn but now it have to be ready until saturday. the push piece came back from the engraver yesterday. today in a total hurry after making some cartridges I fired the rifle to prove it.

six paper and one metall case cartridge at 35 meter offhand. suprisingly the double set trigger don't work anymore after the first shoot. without its much harder to fire the rifle so I think with more time and the set trigger the group would have been much better. anyway, it was for see the rifle is in working condition before it goes back home tommorow.

this is not a self cocking action what makes sense for a stalking rifle and was 150 years ahead of its time. you cock and decock with the push piece what goes very easy and silent.
