Thanks to all for the compliments in spite of the dark photos. The TG is from Reeves Goehring and the BP is from Hedgecock. At the time Reeves didn't have any Bucks County BPs. Will be shooting it shortly.....Fred

Very nice, I've always wanted to build one of those. :thumbsup:

 

[billk]

Is the stock a precarve or from a plank? What type of finish did you use?
Thank you,
Billk :thumbsup:

Stunning...... :thumbsup:

It's built from a blank. Used Klein's orange tinter and LMF Lancaster brown. The color is lighter than in the photos and the curl is more evident. Applied 2 coats of soak-in LMF Sealer w/ a wipe and complete drying after each coat and then applied 3 very thin coats of Wahkon Bay Trucoat, allowing sufficient drying time between coats. This yields a gloss free finish. Mike....why not introduce a Schuler style Bucks County as a kit seeing they're getting popular? I'd buy one....Fred

If it shoots half as good as it looks, it will be a tack driver :hatsoff:

It's a little over 8 lbs...."C" weight 44" bbl but the .54 cal. lightens it up nicely. Again thanks to all for the comments....Fred

 

[renovato]

Gorgeous. It has a great flow to it and the details are well executed. I especially like the wood color and finish.
