While primarily a long time student of the longrifle, I have built two rifles and have one in process. I particularilly like the straight stock comb style of the early Bedford County makers such as Peter White. My production is limited to family members.

I also hunt deer with a longrifle in the Hiawatha National Forest in Michigan's Upper Peninsula. This fall (2009) I will take an Allen Sandy rifle in 54 caliber to Colorado for an elk hunt.
