Dr. Death - that .458 sold for about $600 as I recall. Was hard to generate interest in it here locally.

Thanks Doc, it's a shooter too. I have a load for a 300 grain Barnes at 2800FPS that will shoot 1 inch at 100yards. One of these days there is going to be a big brownie on the receiving end! I also had a better pad put on there so it fits better.

I have two shorty #1's - a 458 and a 45/70. I swear by the magnum kick Eezz pads. Awesome.

They do have some fine wood, but I really wish they would do a better job of fitting wood to metal. Pretty poor in that department. Fortunately, they typically leave the wood proud, so the issue can be rectifed in most instances.

I was fortunate enough to acquire a Shiloh Sharps a few years ago. For a production company, they do the finest wood/metal marriage this side of the Atlantic.

That's far better than most of the Circassian stocks you see smile

I certainly lucked out, ordering sight unseen. That's the problem with #1s, you might win the wood lottery or you might not. It doesn't seem like there's much inbetween. Has anyone ever complained and asked for replacement?
