Happy Birthday to the both of you,  I hope you spend many years together!

Thanks that's always  the plan huh?  ;D

Part of what happens though is the rifle is somewhat immortal and lasts for centuries in some cases. The rest of us are only caretakers for a short time.  ;)

Happy Birthday!  And you don't look a day over 245!

Your rifle looks splendid as well.

Thanks I look good for 75 problem is I'm only 65!  ;D ;D

I appreciate the comment, rifle turned out pretty well for being built with dad's old farming tools. I think a lot of old guns were made pretty much the same way. I did concede to a drill press for the bolts and screw holes.

  Well when I get back to it. Have had both 👀 done. Good old cataracts. Now maybe I won't need all four lanes to drive on or is that two ?  Oldtravler

Build complete on the 4th of July. Sights are lined up and shoots to point of aim with my hunting load. It will keel... ;D
