Steve - I agree, the Christian Springs rifle and later Jaegers fit much like a fine English rifle. Another is the .50 Virginia rifle Taylor finished a year ago for shooting targets at Rondy. It fits perfectly, and this can be attributed to the fairly straight comb and proper drop. Enlarged in bore size and shortened for hunting, it'd be perfect as well. The Germanic influance is noticable. It was the later percussion period that really screwed up the hunting qualities of the American rifle. The Brits on the other hand, raised the English Sporting rifle to it's zernith of shape. Of course, hunting demands in India and Africa drove this 'shape' to it's conclusion. For a rifle to handle as a fine shotgun, is the ultimate' in utility and form.
