Default UNKNOWN ENGRAVER ? can you help?

I reciently acquired a custom rifle that was built in 1956. It has some very nice engraving and gold inlays. It looks much better than my pictures. (My lighting is poor) This rifle was built in Wisconsin but the engraver is not known. There are very deep Oak Leaves and Vines with dozens of Acorns. Some midwest names that have been suggested were Bruehl, Grieble, Kornbrath, etc. Anyone care to take a guess? One distinctive feature is the many Acorns that show only "empty" cups. Thanks for your help.
