From top to bottom : 91/30 with laminated stock, 91/30 hex receiver , M44 with laminated stock, and M38. I have added 6 more since this pic was taken.

I am in southern Kenton county just south of Piner. I don't drink but I love food and make a mean pot o'chili.

I've been reloading 38 SPL and 357 Mag since 1985, 6.5x55 Swede since 1990 or so. I also load 9x18, .308, 7.5x55 Swiss, 7.62x54R, 30-40 Krag, 8x56R, getting ready to load 45 ACP.
