Can anyone give me some suggestions on a good gunsmith for stock fitting in the Maryland / Delaware area. My Winchester Model 70 has been to Africa twice, and I really enjoy shooting it. I have read several articles saying that proper stock fit is important in a DG rifle. I'm not really bothered by the .375 H & H recoil, but if I can make a good rifle even better....why not before my next safari? Jack Bart in Glen Burnie, MD and Mike Del Grosso in Wilmington Delaware are 2 names I have heard good things about. One concern is that most "stock people" seem more attuned to work on shotgun stocks for competition. Would rifle stock fitting be a different skill-set? Thanks for any help.

I have been using a "Personal Property" rider on my State Farm homeowner's policy to cover guns when I travel with them.
I have several firearms, but only one is worth over $20K (A Heym double rifle).
Very interested.
Would firearms be covered for damage, as well as, complete loss?
I'll can let the State Farm rider cover my watches...

trperk1, I bought the Kimber Caprivi 375 back in an earlier post. You attached a target with an impressive three rounds touching 100 yards. I took the 2x10 VX5 off and put a VX6 HD Gen 2 1x6x24 Duplex Firedot on the rifle. It's definitely a shooter curious what loads you used for the group. Loving this rifle so fun to shoot. Africa 2026 Mozambique. Buff and PG. Any info appreciated.
