Anyone who claims the 30-06 is not effective has either not used one, or else is unwittingly commenting on their marksmanship.

An eye for excellence, great equipment and last, but not least, the master's touch.

The same could be said for his rifle making business.... smile

VERY NICE.

Those are all really excellent pictures. Wonder if photography and building rifles for these guys is another extention of their talents??

Jon Beanland who also builds top-knotch rifles, I'm pretty sure he is also a photographer - and a heck of a nice guy to boot!!

Wyman Meinzer said his days as a predator control person in West Texas taught him the patience he needed in his wildlife photography.

He was taking pictures of elk (in Pennsylvania) the day I visited him.

Very nice pictures. Yes, page 7 has some very clear pictures of Watkins falls, a little better than the ones I took last summer.LOL

A flair for the esthetics (right brain) and technical expertise (left brain) is an unusual combo, and a potent one, no doubt.

Sir, IMHO, you got'em both and in good measure. You're blessed.

Have a wonderful New Year.
