I built this in 2005-2006. It took about a year and a half. This was before I retired so I worked when I could. I used tools no more modern than the 18th century gunmakers. I did not bore and rifle the barrel but I did draw file the flats and cut the dovetails, drill, tap and fit the stainless flash hole, and drill and set the lugs for the under pins(which were cut off 3/32"dental lab burs, something I had a lot of on hand )
Please do not compare this work to that of Ben's on his Ruger #1 358 Win. There is no comparison, Ben is a master.
