	Roy, you are welcome to use mine. Only used once. It was made by PGT. I could email you the print. Russ Weber, helped me with the spec's at the time I had it made. His wife was shooting the same. It is a 32-20/.30 the pilot is .03" But the drawing might be of interest if you like. Bob Houghton

	I would love a copy of the drawing ! Thanks for the offer to use your reamer, that is very kind of you. But I'll have Dave Manson make me one so I have it for future projects. Send the drawing to rvb100@comcast.net Thanks

Bob Houghton I, also, would like to see the drawing! Can you take a picture or make a pdf of it? At least the PTG information so's I could get a copy from them.

That would be tough with a decent vernier tang sight, let alone a little buckhorn barrel sight!

	Aww, c'mon guys, you know the clang is just from all the parts in that Marlin falling back into a pile after a few seconds. Or, somebody in the background setting at tin cup of (something) on a log.

	SgtDog, Marlinguy, and I have all shot side-by-side with Mo. He doesn't need tricky editing or someone with a plate and hammer to edit in hits in his videos!

	Jus' pokin' fun, because I've watched several of the videos filmed there and always am delighted by the results as well as the fun every video seems to convey. Maybe a little jealousy tossed in to boot.

	CF, I figured you were just joking, and no offense taken or intended on my part. Just wanted others to know that Mo's the real deal. Great guy, too. Pretty good with a handgun too - shoots way better than I can.

	What's funny is Mo and Wind had some skeptics on another forum who said their long range shooting wasn't possible, and was staged. Unlike your joking post CF, these guys were serious that it was faked. But here's another video that always puts a smile on my face! I can hit the 400 sitting down, facing forward, off cross sticks. But then I'm only human. (You need to *Login* or *Register* to view media files and links)

Maybe a little jealousy tossed in to boot. I had never fired my old single shots past 200 yds. when I made my first visit to the U-Pick Sagebrush Ranch CF. In a matter of minutes the experts there had me on the 500 yd. dinger and hitting it occasionally. They're not only expert shots, but wonderful coaches! We do this once a year, usually in July. About 20 people show up just to have fun and stretch their shooting distances out farther than usual!

	That grin of Wind's after that shot really cracks me up. Knowing him you don't see that look of being pleased with himself too terribly often. But the video I really like is of him which Mo captured is of his tagging the 1000yd dinger off-hand in about three shots. Mo has got to be one of the nicest guys I've ever met. Never saw anyone who took so much pleasure in other's successes.
