Very nice Don! What are the specs? I am guessing 44-77. Great wood for a strong stock.I am looking forward to how it shoots. My 40-90BN should be ready in two months. - Mike

Bill you wouldn't believe how well it holds. Can't wait to shoot it, but the first chance I'll have will be at the 30 shot 500 match in Cheyenne on Sunday. The rounds I have loaded for my hi wall fit this thing like a glove, so if they shoot as well in this as they do in that one...

Dennis damned straight I'm bringing it to Phoenix. :mrgreen: Should have the thing pretty well shot in by the time I get thru with the BPTRA nationals in Sept.

Gary it's a pretty close match to an original I drool over in a museum in Colorado when ever I get the chance.

Nice rifle Don, I seldom see one without double set triggers and I really like the look! What's the pull weight?
