Sheep Dip is pretty good scotch. And remained available under that name purchased from the vet. no less, when they went the wrong way across the pond as we did w/prohibition, making the common and uncommon man both suffer that sufferance. Common sense finally prevailed, but Sheep Dip kept its name.
The Damascus vs. fluid steel thing has been around since the very introduction of fluid steel bbl's. Can you imagine that!? Some Damascus patterns could make good wood blush. I wish that we had a compilation of Oscar's writings on the subject accompanied by true colour plates. A finely bbl'd Damascus gun is precious ... in the Gollum sense. Think Purdey doesn't know that!?
