Nothing special about this film, just me finally knocking down a chamois with a traditional singleshot rifle, the kipplauf (for those intereste, mine has a Jaegerlock).

This hunt is somewhat limited access in Europe, and as a foreigner not something that's easy to do alone. It's been a lifelong goal for me to shoot one of these goats with a traditional break-open rifle. These are very slim and elegant rifles, fairly common in the alps region, not so up north where I live ("why you want to limit yourself to one shot???")

Sadly the cold killed the batteries a bit fast and I knocked the camera, so this film is somewhat limited.

At best this is a different perspective to mountain hunting.
