Got my barrel today! .
Anyone make a buttstock plate for a McMillan edge. Do most leave the plate off due being able to add weight in the backend
 
i posted this in the above but never got a response. The stock i ordered is the MCmillian edge but i was wondering if anyone made a plate for the buttstock. Brunos is out of stock and i wasnt sure if there was a another place that i am unware of.

Whoever is doing the gunsmith work should be able to supply you with a butt plate. If he can’t then you may need a different gunsmith.
 
Well things have been moving along. The stock was shipped out to @Bc'z .
He got it sanded down and got the first coat of primer on it.

I can’t wait to see the final result when BC’z gets done with that stock. It looks like there was a lot of filler needed to get everything flat and true. It will be better than new when he’s done!
 
That's actually the last coat of primer, and the bodywork isn't heavy. I weighed the stock as new 747 grams
After sanding I removed 6 grams of gelcoat masked off bedding for loading port repairs.
After putty was blocked out
Stock with masking tape weighed 750 grams.20231203_163827.jpg20231203_163842.jpg
Here's the stock After bodywork and 1st priming with polyester primer.
 
Stock is definitely in the right hands to get it done right. He leaves no stone unturned with his work. Pics of his paint look really good but up close and personal you have to conclude it's a masterpiece.
 
41 gram gain in weight all prepped ready 20231213_164503.jpg1st coat of base knocked back, looks pretty cool20231213_174230.jpgno sealer on this 1 I gotta watch my weight. 2 more coats of black sprayed to perfection so it doesn't distort the chameleon/candy mid coat.
