I want to thank all who contributed to this thread! Esp. Chris Laubach! It is amazing what falls out of the "tree" when given a good shake!
This thread has been a real learning curve for me - and yes you CAN teach an old dog new tricks!
For those who follow my postings - they will take a break for a while as I am headed to points west for a little "getaway". This will include a "show and tell"with the "Masterpiece Rifle" to the Montana Gunmaking Guild in Bozeman on the 14th. of May. I will be back on or about the 26th. of May.
