Carbon fiber LRB

[Dave M.]

Another centerfold job Brett. BC’Z is the Victoria’s Secret of stock finishing, and every guy that gets one of his stocks must feel like Leo DiCaprio with one of his many Angels on his arm.

Brian there was no way this would fly for me, I took this shot when I was setting up to spray the channel.
The gunmetal just works, i have another LRB going that has it as the foundation color.

I’m speechless , I’m fresh out of superlative’s for your talents.
Your the man..

No filler on this 1 carbon fiber edge fill primed and blocked with a dose of red candy for Mike @6BRA to hide the foam in the barrel channel I sprayed in some black and titanium gunmetal pearl before candy.

Thats a light fill LRB, not a foam fill. No problem getting these, other than the normal McMillan lead time. McMillan calls this pattern "carbon ambush". Normally you see earth tones in the hunting stocks. But, they will use any colors you want. Out of all the ones I have ordered the red carbon ambush is the best looking and Brett did a great job on this one. When the new owners took over they stopped letting me order the foam filled LRB. I could probably get them to make me stocks with nothing in the shell forward of the action and pour in my own foam. Its not a difficult process but for some reason they dont want to do it. The foam fill went against common "knowledge" about stocks. Its not a stiff stock, at least in my mind it helps the front of the rifle come up under recoil and aids in positive compensation. We saw less climb on target in our ladders with them. Not many guys ordered them, but the ones that did have done well. Dave Way is one that has a foam fiberglass stock, its been exceptional.

Thank you.
I've only done only 2 or 3 of the foam fill and was curious why I didn't see it anymore. It a shame the new owners didn't carry forward with something that obviously worked well.
Hopefully this won't be the last Ambush LRB I get to do, it really was fun.
I can't help to think a light to medium blue with sky blue candy would be pretty stellar.

 

[Alex Wheeler]

I have done them in blue, its good but the red is the one that really pops for some reason. Neon green or blaze orange would be interesting.

What's wrong with primer grey finish it's the new in colour . Look how many car manufacturers are using it

Im building a rifle now that will be sprayed grey. It must be catching on?

 

[Seagull]
