Red Stags in Scotland
02/11/12 02:24 AM

I was in Scotland a couple of weeks ago and had the opportunity to go stag stalking in the Highlands. I really enjoyed it and had the opportunity to take two stags.

Here is the first one taken at Glen Lyon.

And my second stag I shot at Glen Tromie.

Both stags were taken with the the following rifle. A new Rigby on a Mauser action in 6.5x55. I know that some will cry fowl regarding the caliber, but here's how that came about. A customer ordered a the rifle and once we had the barreled action in the shop, he had to cancel the order. So we finished the rifle with stalking in the Highlands in mind. We left off the iron sights, slimmed the barrel down some. Anyway, this is the result. We had a new Leica Magnus scope in the shop to put on the rifle, which is too big, but a very nice piece of glass.
