My completed Woodsrunner

[Caleb Foster]

I just wanted to share a recent build that I did. This is my second, with the Colonial as my first. I am very pleased with this rifle! I went ahead and bought the tall rear sight and next week I’ll start working up a load. 54 Cal basic maple. Pics below.

Beautiful. Mine has the tall sight and shoots 80 GR 3F great. My buddy his has the tall sight also and he likes 90 GR 2F.

80 GR 3F runs right at 1750 FPS in my runner.

Don't know why, but only three of the thumnails are displaying an image for me. 7099, 7100 and 7101 are just showing an icon placeholder. Did try refreshing the page and that didn't help.

Very large files.

Very large files.

Oh, ya, I see that now. I usually edit my pics to reduce their size when I have more than two or three to upload. I think the forum chokes on large media files.

Love the color and sheen of both those guns. What finish did you use?

 

[BigAl52]

Both guns look nice. Can you tell much difference when shouldering those rifles Caleb? I know the Colonial is heavier just wondered if you could really tell much difference.

Looks good, the Woods Runner is noticeably lighter handles better than the Colonial.

thank you! Waterlox tung oil semi gloss finish was used on both. 3 coats after iron nitrate stain

Yes, I can. To me, the WR is much more enjoyable to shoulder. I think it probably has to do with the weight but the LOP suites me more on the WR also

I agree

For some reason they came up nicely on my computer.
