Bill helped me getting my C. Sharps shooting. He was more than willing to talk to me about various “tricks” of using cast bullets and setting up my single shot rifles to shoot them. He was interested in my hunting success with lead bullets, black powder and iron sights. He quizzed me about the cast bullets performance when I was successful and chided me about using a modern, scoped rifle the next year.

Bill was an intelligent, generous man. My sincere condolences to his family!

Godspeed Bill!
