Yes, so I heard as well.
I was most blessed when a collector contacted me to make the offer to me. He had three sets at the time, and allowed me to pick one. I made that decision mostly based upon the width measurement across the breech. AIR, this set was within a couple .000" of being the same as my 30 " set.
They weren't cheap, but fortunately I had enough sense to realize the value, and have never regretted it. I've had them for at least 10 years, maybe more, waiting for the right gun to fit them to, and the right 'smith to do it. Men that are capable of properly fitting a set to an action don't grow on trees, either.
