Great looking gun. Can't wait to here how it shoots. Sounds like you are setting it up to reach out there and really touch something.

With that bbl length, but not knowing twist, you may be able to use the 140 amax, heard reports of 600 yd deer kills, of course you have to place the slug. Yes, reach out and touch something with that rig!

James:

I like your tastes. Does Lincoln do his own fluting, or did it come from Lothar that way? Very nice.

I'm betting that rifle shoots as good as it looks. Very nice looking, purpose built rig!

Let's see some range pics next!

Roedale rifle has been here a week now, kill total so far is,

5 roe deer
6 crow's
2 foxes
lost count of dead paper......
only 1 photo,

I've heard that some other "daily sport" forum has a post up about how my Roedale rifle dosent shoot ;D ;D

I've also been told "where's the pic's to prove it???"

Well I borrowed my wife's digital camera, collected lastnight's two foxes on the quad, and took a photo of them just to show that they are real!!! ;D

Two vixen's in the same field, came running to "pup cries" on the Jonny Stewart call.First shot at 120 yards. left the call running and shot the other at 100 yards. Think the A-Tec work's as well
