Jacks House

[Kevin McCormack]

Attached is a photo showing L to R yours truly, Vernon Speer, and my friend Fergie ("Bear") Taylor, taken on the loading dock of Speer Bullets in Lewiston ID in September of 1973. Fergie's Mom and Dad had bought a small farm in Dayton WA the previous Spring and were having a coyote problem. Fergie and I worked in a major sporting goods store back East and Fergie bought his father a .270 Weatherby Magnum with a 3-9 Redfield variable scope on it for his birthday. On the loose for the week in the high country, we all piled in the truck one day and drove up to Speer to find out about the most effective bullet weights for deer as well as varmints. When we got back home to Dayton, Fergie and I sighted the Weatherby in at a measured 300 yards. While it wasn't exactly a "tack driver", when Roy said "high velocity", he meant it!

We would like to see a blown up picture of Kevin McCormack as a young man. Kevin owns a rifle?

If he does, I'm wiling to bet its a pre-64 model 70 in .270. I don't think Fox built any double rifles.

Hey Bill, how about a blown up picture of your youthful self with the little 28 bore?

We'd all like to see that, I'm sure.

Nice house. Only drawback is there are neighbors close by. That drawback would be for them AND me.
