New .58 caliber Hawken type Rifle

Both rifles are quite nice as well as correct handed. I especially like the checkered stock on the walnut side stocked rifle.The one on top is a .54 caliber. It has a 36" J. Goodoien barrel, engraved Bob Roller lock, a checkered wrist with curly maple stock. The lock, trigger guard, and butt plate are color cased, which have aged (faded) to a mottled gray. The nose cap is pewter, but the ram rod thimble, patch box, and toe plate are nickel plated. The stock is slightly thicker than the one below. The only thing I can think of was it was intended as a competition or just fancied up rifle. I do not know who built it. 7The bottom one is the .58 caliber that I just received. 36"À Rice barrel, with browned iron furniture. Both rifles have a browned barrel.
I picked up a .53 Hawken, walnut stock and of course, correct handed, seven years ago. The patch box and just about everything else is Nickel silver with the barrel being browned but what drew me to buy it was the 15 inch length of pull, which fits my 6'8"A frame nicely. It is a chunk, ten pounds at least.

Gorgeous! Inspirational as well. I’m looking into building a .62 tapered with walnut stock.
Beautiful, elegant simplicity. Congrats ! SW
That is a sharp looking rifle

How did you contact him? I can find no address.
I love seeing these beautiful left handed rifles.
Pretty but the locks on the wrong side of the gun
Only if you're looking at it in a mirror from both sides at once.

If you send an email to Track of the Wolf, they will provide you with his contact info. He builds rifles for them as well.

I tried them. They said they don't give out any info of their suppliers. Probably don't want people to go around them.
It should be a real shooter with the Rice barrel. I have a 54 cal Rice and it's the smoothest loading and best shooting barrel I have. I just ordered another Rice barrel in 45 for the next build.
