I sold my .375 a little while ago, so as to afford to build this one. Still in the making.

It is one of the square bridge '98's that John Saunders was doing in the 80's or 90's.
The pictures were taken just after I took possession and show a patina of rust. This was very light and has been polished off.
The hideous bolt handle has also been changed.

Stock wood is locally grown (Dungowan) walnut. Dense as buggery. But when cut into blanks, they tried to get too many stocks out of the wood they had and so I have to be very careful with the layout. I've laid a Westley richards stock that I have over it and it does fit....just.

Stock wood pictures show dry and a quick light spray of water.

It will be fitted with a octagonal Lothar Walther barrel (which I import) with integral full length rib and integral front sight base.
