After handling each and every one of Michael Petrov's Wundhammer rifles, and reading the history of a few Alaskan guides who carried them, I had always wanted one. I bid on four of them and it looks like as least two of the Wundhammer rifles (256 & 258) will be moving back to Alaska to enjoy a few more days afield. I only wanted one to join my Minar and Sedgley and will probably let someone else adopt the other one.
The little 7x57 Lancaster #398 is also headed this way and should get some time afield as well after blacktails on Kodiak.


If any of you are interested in a great Alaskan hunting book you might look for a copy of "Alaskan Adventure" by Jay P. Williams. He was a hunting partner of Hosea Sarber and he carried a Wundhammer rifle for thirty years until he lost it in a boat fire. The various stories of bear hunts in the old Alaskan territorial days are fantastic.

Anyone who claims the 30-06 is ineffective has either never used one - or else is unwittingly commenting on their marksmanship
