*Thanks to Big Fin for letting me post this.

The Rocky Mountain Bighorn Society is raffling a $5,500 credit towards the custom build of your choice with @van franke, owner of Plains Precision Firearms. Van builds incredibly accurate rifles. Below are a couple of examples, but visit his Facebook page to see countless others.

This raffle is only running through September, so purchase early and often. Proceeds go to our Conflict Resolution program to pay for domestic sheep grazing allotment retirements in bighorn sheep habitat. Below are links about two allotment retirements the RMBS has helped to fund recently.

If you are on Facebook, a share of the raffle post I've added to the RMBS page would be appreciated. Facebook won't let us promote links about firearms sales or raffles.

Wait, so if I win can I still use the rifle for the goat tag I'll never draw? Do I need to start being rejected for sheep tags now?

So conflicted.

I'd love to win this one, but I won't have any tickets in the bin. I've talked to Van about rifle builds approximately 27 times in the last year.
What are you planning on getting made?
 
Speaking of inadequate......

My google-fu is weak today. Does this fella have a website that I can't find? I have been dipping my toes into the world of a custom hunting rifle and have been snooping around looking for a builder.
