Joel,

That African Mahogany stock is BEAUTIFUL.........

Thanks Phil

 

[spitfire_er]

Here's a stock I carved up over the past year or so. I found this piece of wood as a return at a lumber yard about 7-8 years ago. I asked the guy in the yard about it and he said it had been returned because it had too much figure for the job the customer was working on. First thing I thought was, That would make a nice stock. finally got around to finishing it a couple months ago.

I fit it around a 1917 Enfield in 338 WM that I purchased a while back. I usually do all the work on the receiver and barrel, but this one was done up in an OK fashion already. Just had to repair a botched bolt handle job on it.

Just wanted to thank whomever it was that recommended a local shop to hydrodip my rifle.. Can't find the thread it was on.. But it turned out unlike no other rifle on the line.. Just what I was looking for !

 

[Pittsburgh Pappy]

Thanks! Hope it shoots good.

She's gorgeous ... and yes .... from what I've heard, it will shoot well with you on the butt end, and your hand loading expertise. Can't wait for the follow up showing those 1 hole groups.

Thanks man.

You have a good eye. That is Paulownia wood. It's a LV gun. The stock came in at 18 ounces so Bruno didn't have any problems getting it to make weight. Action is glued. No pillars or screws.

I'm happy with how it turned out. I like how the black accents in the wood are working with the other black parts. Dave suggested it.

I like the Loading Port Side swirl figure in the wood. One of a kind and yours alone!!! 2 Thumbs Up!

Here is my 6 Creedmoor. the creed is the most bestest round ever. I charge a buck to touch this gun, 5 for a full fondle, and 10 to fire one shot.View attachment 1051760

I’m lame and like a camo stock and ALL metal matte black to include scope and rings. But, that sir, is one beautiful rifle!

 

[willbas]

Got my zero for new Bartlein barrel at 300 yards.

The rifle came in overweight by approx 6 ozs. change to a MPOD and thinner recoil pad
and now it weights in at 17 lbs 10 ozs.

To WillBas:

Will -- I like that mat you have. Looks like it has some horizontal stiffeners so it stays flat. Who makes that mat. Also, what is the brand of rear bag. I like the carry handle.
