I started out with bolt actions in the 1950's and they worked well.

In the 60's I found a Savage 99F in .358 Win. and that became my primary big game rifle. I had a fine High Wall for chucks and I got one of the first Ruger #1 single shots when they came out.

I was shooting single shot bolt rifles in centerfire and .22 competition.

Now I am primarily shooting a few well made custom bolt rifles. I shoot often at the range in good weather.

This 30-06 mauser actioned custom has a full length octagon barrel and a well crafted stock.
