According to RISM, Bühler's output of masses seems to have been prodigious- his opus 1, 10, 16, etc. contained masses in F major also (of the thousands of manuscripts, manuscript copies and published scores by Franz Bühler at RISM - quite a collection represented in that database... 500-plus belong to manuscript works and fragments having to do with settings of the mass.)
