Shooting magazine editor Paul Austin is stalking the low ground around Gordon Castle on the River Spey. We’re here for the launch of Browning’s new X-Bolt 2 rifle, and guided by outfitter Sergio Couto. Paul gets onto a nice roe buck. It’s hit, but we can’t find it in the thick forestry plantation – so Sergio calls for his deer hound.
For more information about the new X-Bolt 2 rifle, go to Browning.eu
