The good book says not to covet, so I'll have to look away... Beautiful piece, congrats!!
Here is a couple pics of my newest addition to my growing Shiloh Collection.

Nice one Kenny. You don't see high cheek pieces like that, truly a custom touch. Nice perch belly on the butt as well.
Regards,
Bill

Beautiful rifle! And the best use for a cell phone I've seen!
Thanks Pat. I deleted my two post because I thought the pictures I took looked bad bad. I will surely never be a photographer. Anyway here they are again.
Aint nothing wrong with those photo's I love that case!
Here's my two, 45-70 another Bill Goodman gun #1 Sporter the other is a #1 Sporter as well ,32" half round 40-70 Sharps Straight.
That rifle is a real beaut, Duke!
Have you built the wooden case for it yet?

Turbo,
is that the new Soule "Wasserburger" model? On my way back to Idaho from Quigley this year I stopped and bought the LR model and a Hadley Magnum eyecup for my 45-90. This year was a real expensive trip.
I bought two CZ rifles in 404 Jeffery and 505 Gibbs on the way. then a three barrel set CPA (22lr, 40-65 and 45-70) and then stopped in Belgrade at MVA on the way home. They always see me coming.
Last year I slid thru with only a 45-70 Axtell M1877 heavy Sporter.
Is there anything as lovely to behold as a fine single shot rifle wrapped in figured walnut?

I know this thread is under BP Cartridge - but a Shiloh is still a Shiloh, right?? Here's my 1863 carbine. Just a couple of pics to highlight the gorgeous case coloring and wood to metal fit and finish.. Shiloh does a superb job.
I took delivery around Thanksgiving. Shiloh sure makes quality rifles. It shoots real nice too.
Those are some of the most beautiful rifles I have ever seen! The engraveing is amazing.
They are truly treasures.
I am breathless.
I give a 10+ on that one Alan. Sweet- one of these nicest in detail I have ever seen in one for my tastes.
Yeah, Suzy Bradley is one talented engraver. She does all the fine engraving for Shiloh.
