When I first looked at the pictures, my first thought was yes, the comb is a little humped up. But I laid a straight edge along the barrel and see that there is currently lots of drop at the comb/wrist transition, so it should not be a cheek slapper, depending on the calibre obviously. The Lehigh rifles I've built have less of a Roman Nose comb than yours, but I don't think what you have is wrong. It's a matter of taste. And the comb nose is not an independent feature...other areas must be considered in unison, ie: the drop of the tang immediately behind the breech, in other words, the straightness of the wrist, the angle along the top of the butt plate return relative to the top of the comb, your stepped wrist appears a little exaggerated to my eye and appears too short 'fore and aft', the position of the cheek piece in the buttstock...just a few items that are inter-related. I'd like to see the same pictures with the trigger guard in position, not necessarily inlet.
