Best surgery I ever had! Wore glasses or hard contacts over 50 years, had this done about 10 years ago...All I did to adjust was widen the gap in the rear sight, to better see the front one...Hopefully your surgery will be as successful as mine...I do use readers 1.25 for reading, went with 2.50...

Bless you!!! I just put my order in.. :)

Very nice!!!

Welcome from the Piedmont of NC..

I have several books, do you have a specific area and time period?

What is your intended purpose? My Ed Rayle barrel groups well from 30-60 gr, Goex FFF...I usually load 30 for squirrel hunting and have it sighted in at 25 yards for that...

Problem with balance is everyone is different, it's subjective... I have a Bob Watts mountain rifle, 13/16 straight barrel, 42 inches long.40 caliber, I like how it feels, not to heave to carry squirrel hunting and is steady with a rest... I have a .54, early Lancaster, 1 1/16 tapered to...

I've always loved that gun!!

Welcome from NC..

Good job!!!

Just the stain, I did do 2 coats though...

I used Laurel Mountain Forge Honey Maple and their browning. sealer and finish on the stock...Browning is easy as hot and humid as it has been here in NC for the past month...I like to lightly pit my barrels and buff down the lock before each application...I made the toe plate as I have seen too...

Jim, you are having too much fun with your "toys"!!! :)

I completed this yesterday, just in time for my 68th birthday today!!! I built one in the late '80s, early Carolina in .54 caliber so I ordered my WoodsRunner in .54 as well, fancy maple wood...I had a ramrod with a brass tip already installed so I added the tapered iron tip as well...I cut the...

Looking good!!!

Fingerless, wool gloves work for me...

By the early 1800s most bears and deer were gone so they were hunting squirrels, rabbits, turkeys, etc...Bores were typically .30-.40 caliber, so, you are shooting a small target, usually the head with smaller calibers, accuracy was the key...Thus, they went with set triggers.

Honey maple, 2 coats...

I like it!! Would be perfect for those with a WoodsRunner as it reflects an earlier, little more primitive horn...Good luck!!

NC here as well, Randolph County...Sounds like life has you busy...I'll be 68 in a few days, thankful that it's slowing down for me, letting me enjoy things that I never had time to do when raising children...Good luck with all!!
