Elkhunternm, great looking rifle and story, enjoyed it. Allways wondered what he did with the 35 Whelen he loaned to Ken Waters for the Pet Loads article on the 35 Whelen. Better take him some venison this fall. Magnum Man

Geez Gunner, wid all da guys who want that NICE little .303 double, ya best NOT put any of them in yer will or you'd haveta hire a food taster soon as i find a midget willing to jump out of a plane that 303 is mine.....already got the monkeys trained to ride greyhounds....just need that damn midget and my plan is complete.....something bout their small size keeps getting them blown off course and after the first one wound up off course and landed in a hog pen and didnt make it ive had a hard time finding volunteers....i got him a nice headstone but noooo.....seems its a small tight nit community and words gotten out

I was privileged to handle that rifle before you absconded with it. Congratulations! I'll bet that it shoots as good as it looks. A pic with the previous owner and me. That is Ken Howell. Frame that picture........ Dan
