If it's as good as the last one, the Journal has turned a page. Better editing, better content, better writing. |  |  |

No article by Ross, was that an article or an advertisement for Ballard arms? I did like the article on Herr und Frau Ern.....That is a beautiful break open single shot rifle they build, Truly best quality to my eye. Overall not a bad issue. A bit more on British rifles would always be welcome.Steve

Guess will have to stop at local Barnes & Noble to see what all this excitment is about.     May take a peek at babe on the cover of Shooting Sportsman as well.   |  |  |

I haven't received mine yet and am not too anxious for it.  While the photos are always great, they're all basically the same.  And what can be said about the editorial content--good writing should have a beginning, middle, and end.  There should be a point to the story.  Usually the DGJ ignores the basics and prints the most useless, awkward stuff I've ever read.  It doesn't even seem that the editor has read and corrected the submitted copy.  Hate to be so hard on what many consider to be the finest publication in the field but it falls far short of what it could easily be.  Having said all that (and relieved my frustration) I'll eagerly scan through it admiring the pretty pictures.  No hate mail please, this is just my lone opinion.
