That is a really nice rifle for sure!  I always liked your well-defined lock panels and layout of the stock and forend.

I certainly cannot fault the workmanship.  But the architecture is off for ME.  Unless the rifle is .36 cal or smaller, that stock would crack my cheek as the drop at the comb is insufficient for my face.
