Heh heh... yup, that's a part of it. The original intent was for it to keep me busy into early summer, then have it ready to bring along on a trip to my bother in law and his wife's place for a family reunion in late July. I taught him to shoot muzzle loaders some 30 years ago, and it's become a tradition to do so when we stay at their place in Old Town, ID. Now my wife is somewhat concerned that I might finish before that... like later this week...
"No problem", I tell her - I already have my next one picked out. It will be a Jim Kibler kit for a Southern Mountain Rifle. This one will be my "squirrel rifle", in .36 caliber. It will make a fine companion to my Dixie Gun Works kit for a Tennessee Mountain Rifle that I built over 30 years ago, in .50 caliber.
