I paraphrase: one girl was attractive enough, even temperament, thrifty, a good cook and would make a good wife, mother and homemaker. The other had much the same qualities but was a lithe and raving beauty who had young men dreaming, fantasizing, singing outside her window and howling in the night. Their difference in look was only from a touch or two here and something there. And so it is with Fox smallbores.
I’ve owned several Sterlingworth small bores and honestly shot them as well as anything else . I could be swayed by a Sterlingworth or A grade 20 with 32” barrels .
