Thanks, Working on forearm which has been cut down 3 inches and being re-shaped for the sling band, need to fit a recoil pad, sort out the magazine, and get it blued. But so far, so good on the first one:

I look forward to seeing your results and rest assured, when you're ready to post your first results, I'll create a Lever Action section for the ribbon cutting.

If I may ask a favor, who exactly is making a lever action in 460 S&W? I own three LA's in 35 Remington and enjoy no rifle I own more than my JM stamped 336C's. I have seen where Rossi made a LA in 454C and dearly wish I had bought one when they were affordable before they went out of production.

Disregard
I remembered Bighorn Armory specializes in custom impressive big bore LA's at equally impressive prices.
Wish I could afford such extreme expressions of firearm art work.

I've fondled and drooled on those Bighorn rifles, top notch quality.

I have a 480 Ruger Puma that can get your attention real quick and when that isn't enough fun, I'll dig out the Winchester 94 Big Bore in 450 Marlin.
