Got a call from Tip Burns so this weekend we made a day trip to Austin and Canyon Lake.
I had Tip rebarrel and refurbish, restock, my 257 Roberts that I shot my first deer with back in 1953. It was a present for my daughter Stormy Lavelle

My son-in-law Chris, Stormy and Tip.

And yes, the stock matched her nails!


I'm sure she will have as much fun with rifle as I did!

The smile on your Daughter's face tells all... thumb
Now, your assignment is to make up some good loads for her, and take her shooting, then hunting... Big Grin Big Grin

Kudos to the Father, and the Daughter...
