Gainesville Florida and Michigan's Upper Peninsula
« on: February 16, 2010, 02:56:42 PM »
I'm here holding an Axtell 1877 Sharps rifle chambered for 45 x 2.4 (45-90). Everyone deserves to treat themselves to a custom rifle once in a while, and this is the most beautiful firearm I've ever owned.

My wife and I divide the year between florida and the U.P. I do most of my hunting in Michigan and Colorado. I hand load all my cartridges. I also like to fly fish and enjoy woodworking.

Welcome to Graybeard's 8iowa.

Please stop by the Michigan forum and check it out. If you have any pictures of your hunts in Michigan, there is a picture page in that forum to post those too.

Nice to have you here.
