The pictures were great. The reality is better.  Handlled the rifle at Dixons and it is dead on. A Shroyer is a very hard rifle to get right.

Thank you Bill - you gave it a thorough looking over, I very much appreciate your keen eye and genuine feedback. 

This was built as my new personal rifle - as Acer said, we'll see how long that lasts.  I'd like to hang onto it for a while, as I don't know when I'll have the next opportunity to build another for myself.

Fantastic! I love how clean the patchbox is. It goes well with everything else I love about your rifle. If you could spare a cup or two of that talent, and send it my way it would be greatly appreciated.
