Hawken design philosophy

The goal was to create a Hawken-style rifle that honors the name for marketing but refines the design rather than making an exact copy. This includes balancing the traditionally large barrels and small buttstocks, refining the stock lines for more visual interest, and potentially incorporating subtle English sporting rifle characteristics to make it more appealing to the majority of customers.
