I have several Ruger No. 1's with better than average wood, but not in the same league as most I'm seeing here. How about a couple of blackpowder single shots? Shiloh Sharps - bought off the rack in Big Timber as a No. 3 Sporter in 45-90 with 32" heavy barrel and standard wood. After shooting it for a couple of years, had it re-stocked in extra fancy, AA finish, accent line cheek piece, bedded forend w/ ebony tip, ebony pistol grip, bone & charcoal pack color case hardening, and shortened the barrel to 28". I guess now it's a Saddle Rifle: ![[Linked Image]](http://i203.photobucket.com/albums/aa241/JWGray/2012-09-28123322.jpg) Ballard #4 Perfection in 45-70 manufactured in Cody, WY with upgraded wood (was told French walnut), and 28" standard weight barrel: ![[Linked Image]](http://i203.photobucket.com/albums/aa241/JWGray/2012-09-28123131.jpg) Love them both but the Ballard is on my short list

1B Quite the beauty. Maple gives a stock some real character. The No.1 is a perfect platform for a custom rifle. ![[Linked Image]](http://i228.photobucket.com/albums/ee71/freedumb1/1-B_Maple_No1-1.jpg)

I like them with American influence. Some of the German Schuetzen stuff is so complicated with the humped stocks and extra pieces of steel hanging off in different places, I just can't find the beauty I do in a good old Sharps or Browning 78. I have a couple original buffalo rifles sent to Montana in the 1870's, and a few others from Shiloh and an original carbine in 50-70. ![[Linked Image]](http://i235.photobucket.com/albums/ee202/bridgershooters/100_3858.jpg) This one was worked over in A. D. McAusland in Miles City Montana in the 1880's... ![[Linked Image]](http://i235.photobucket.com/albums/ee202/bridgershooters/115_2158.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](http://i235.photobucket.com/albums/ee202/bridgershooters/115_2165.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](http://i235.photobucket.com/albums/ee202/bridgershooters/115_2168.jpg) This one was customized by Walter Cooper in Bozeman in the late 1870's... ![[Linked Image]](http://i235.photobucket.com/albums/ee202/bridgershooters/100_0693.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](http://i235.photobucket.com/albums/ee202/bridgershooters/114_1450.jpg)

Re: my 30/40, yes it was a Cabela's special. The fore end pretty much matches the rear stock.
