Thanks for posting James! I just received these bighorn sheep grips from Rowen Custom Grips. As many of you know, Rob is a master at this craft. Previously, Rob installed some dall sheep grips on a FA 44 Mag. I liked them so much we decided to go with bighorn on this FA 454 Casull. The fit and finish are superb! And Rob finishes these grips for customer satisfaction. Rob is a gentleman and pleasure to work with throughout the process. I just want to publicly thank Rowen Custom grips for a beautiful set of panels! I sincerely appreciate this level of workmanship. And the photos do not do these grips justice...

Beautiful Grips and Beautiful Craftsmanship!!!
Love seeing that overtravel screw in that trigger too! It makes more difference than most think it does...

I think of all the grip options for FA, sheep look the best. They've got nice grain and character and the colors mate with the stainless well.
Rob is great to work with, and between his skills and FA machining I bet those are seamless.
That must be the nicest Field Grade out there.

Thanks for the kind words but Rob gets/deserves all credit. I appreciate the individual character of horn - and the feel. Thankfully we have guys like Rob Rowen who enhance our shooting pleasure!

Rob's work speaks for itself. Those are awesome. Now, if you don't mind, could we get pics of the whole gun with it's new shoes?

I saw them on FB. Those are some of the nicest bighorn grips I have ever seen. Coloration is as nice as the fit and finish. Just incredible.

Absolutely beautiful! That’ll be hunting in class, Mark!
Reminds me - I’ve got a set of bighorn scales laying on my bench that needs to be displayed on something. I believe would look good on a FA 97 - I need to contact Rob.
