Really nice rifle, Jeff. And a good hobby for you. It engages your body and mind. Your tactile skills and use of tools and materials and craftsman strategies and methods. And then there is the seemingly endless study of ballistics and the even more complex "how you get there" variables across several different elements. Bores, riflings, projectiles, propellant....
This is good for you. And good for Mrs. Higgins.
