I really like the style with the iron butt. The butt cries English, but the comb angle is more Hawken - so it's a cross. The double barrel keys also represent the ultimate for muzzleloaders of the American West. I find the action quite interesting. I've not seen one in person, just pictures of original rifles of this style. I'd place the rear sight a bit more foreward. Guess I'll have to google up P. Allen and see what's up with that action. Hope he has a web site.
; After checking 8 pages of google - no luck - gave up.

Bore choice and rifling are perfect, but alas, not for me.
Very nice - it will be a SUPER hunting rifle when finished.
