Always great to use a rifle older than you are.  Hope I can still hunt at 80!  Tom

What a great combo, nice buck with a cool old Ballard.
I'm glad to hear your doing well.  It's been over 40 years since I have seen you.

Ballards may be weaker,
but they sure are neater!

Great job. I used to have a #4 in 32/40 that I would stroll through thru the woods with. I've got a 40/63 barrel and am waiting to find an action now. I hope to have it set up by next season. Stay healthy Sir.    Tim
