Glenn, I agree the Farquharson is the one that sets the bar. I'm curious why no one, to m y knowledge, has made a modern copy of the Holland Woodward. One of my regrets is missing the chance to own one. I wish Steve Earle would take it on. I like the Fraser too. Comparing the simplicity of the 1885 Winchester with the more complicated British designs makes me appreciate the genius of Browning's action, but the profile of a Farquharson or a Fraser is hard to match for sheer elegance.
