A metalsmith re-stocks a No.1

[Hammsolo]

Gorgeous. Pieces of art. My butthole puckers watching you even handle the parts. I’d be terrified to drop it or take it in the field. She’d go on my wall proudly.

Paul, you are truly a master of your craft!

Throwing this in here too cause I don't feel like starting a new thread. No. 3 chambered in 22 Hornet.

Not a fan of the No 3’s….obsessed with the No 1’s….but that is beautiful!!! Outstanding job

Man that is beautiful and a work of art in my opinion

 

[rmyoung1]

Wow, Paul. Just wow

 

[Cornbread]

WOW! That is a work of love & art. Im a #1 owner. Only one.

When your wife wants a new rifle, she's a keeper, and as it turns out, arrived just in time for Mother's Day. 6.5 Creed, Brux 26" 1:8 twist and Paul did something fancy with the trigger, and it has the quarter rib. Planning to use 124 gr Hammers, but also got some 143 gr Norma Bondstrikes. Leica Amplus 6 3-18x44i. This is actually factory wood which Paul refinished, and, as usual, feels like glass.

Beautiful work.

Beautiful @longbow51 ...

 

[Salmonchaser]

That turned out very nice. I’m still trying to decide which one I send next a 257 Roberts or a 275 Rigby.

If not both, the Rigby sir...

Dang those are beautiful. I have 2 Ruger 1B's in 30-06 and 6mm Remington. They both have nice wood with one of them having extra nice wood and I love them both but man those are beautiful. Really thinking I need to send the one with the beautiful figured wood in for a refinish!

Just in case anyone wonders if Paul can get #1s to shoot. 300 yards, rl 19; 180 accubonds at a sedate 2980 SD around 5 300 HH. I leave for South Africa in one week. We’ll see if his work kills stuff dead.

Wonderful parent cartridge and shooting.
