I am interested in the stalking rifle event. What distances are the targets shot; and are the targets stationary? I assume it must be short distances since scopes are not to be used.

The outfit is coming from my gun club. Can give you a preview.

Three targets. One pop up at about 40 yards. exposed for a few seconds then turns away. Actual time will vary depending on single shot or double. Crosser is running appx 50 yards, left to right then turns and comes back right to left. Charger comming at you diagonal from appx 50 yards, turns and runs away same distance. I shoot it with guns zeroed for 50 yards. Speed is variable depending on how it's set up. Intent will be to give you makeable shots with no time to waste.

Actual distances depend on the terrian, wires targets run on are 50 yards long. It's a whole lot of fun to shoot. I understand it's going to be re-entry. Shoot again if you want to.

Hopefully a few Doublehunshop guys will be making it to the Vintagers shoot this year hosted by Hopkins Game Fair in Maryland. There will be many double rifle events as well as shotgun.

I will be attending, albeit as a vendor. My first time doing so. I have a lot of excitement for things to come, I hope that will be shared by others.

I recently made this backdrop for the booth, it should make me easy to spot.


I will have this conversion project there that is nearing completion. I also did the stocking.




Some of you might be familiar with the M70 .404 project I did a while ago. I just took delivery of it from the engraver. It will be presented at the show in-the-white.

I'm very excited to be showing the first three prototype round action trigger plate guns I'm doing. The first three will yield wonderful 9.3x74r, .375 fl, or you could even do a 28ga if you're into that kind of thing. Action is pictured in rough form, plenty of work to do.




I will have many other projects available to include; a BRNO SxS action perfectly suited for a 450-400 conversion, a Westley Richards reproduction 1895 single shot action ready to be made into a complete rifle best suited for .450ne size cases, a droplock reproduction action suited well for .303 British, and many other items.
