    I have a few years worth of gun projects on the book
    But i suspect I might rip through them this winter

    Fitted and tested a 209 primer conversion nipple on my muzzleloader to get it ready for the roar and winter hunting.
    Better spark for cold winter tahr hunts

    Fitted an extractor and started a safety tumbler for the Hollis martini 500 express

    Finally put all the parts back into my 1885 22K hornet and zeroed the scope.
    I had burgled all the springs to copy and cook 2 sets for my other 1885 project

    Mounted a 6x Malcolm scope on my Stevens 44 1/2 today.
    Went to fit the new firing pin I got from USA and found that because the breech block was bushed it's the wrong size
    So that was a fail

    Might finally get back on to my double rifle build

    Have @Tentman s 44 1/2 to try and get shooting

    Waiting for jacketed projectiles to sort my fussy 375 Winchester that doesn't like cast bullets

    And that's just the last week !

    Have I stick to finish
    Two stocks to make from scratch
    And what ever other projects come along as well

    Happiness is a well stocked workshop
