That's pretty nice. How did you finish the stock? Be as detailed as you have time for.

I have a really good idea, and he executed it to perfection.

It started with a very diluted coat of black dye. Sanded that back and then a color called Ox Blood, which has a brown effect and sanded that back. Then four coats of burgundy dye, just a wipe down between coats and let it soak in. Then last but not least a heavy coat of red dye. The burgundy and red was not sanded back any, just wiped a lot with a clear neutral that blends it all together. Let the sit for a few days and went over it all with OOOO steel wool and then sealer. Blocked out the sealer and then the top coat of clear. The top coat goes on really really slick! Started blocking the top coat with 1500, 2000, 2500 and then buffing time. The dye used is Angelus brand leather dyes and the sealer and top coat is the Simtec system that @Bc'z turned us onto and if I ever get to Oregon or he gets to SC I owe him at least a dinner for!!!!

Another long project came to a close today! My new stock for my hunter Benchrest rifle. Our dear Lord did such a wonderful job on this wood, all I needed was to not screw it up and spray the clear coat. Stock is a combination of sap and heart wood, some ambrosia streaks and some curl. Action is a dual port Kodiak that when Kelbly’s cut the new right port, relabeled it as a panda, but it’s only 1.35” wide. Chambered in 30BR Brux and Bix n Andy trigger. 6X Burris HBR scope and Harrell’s rings.

One fine rig for sure. How much does the stock weigh?

Right at two pounds, I’m working on getting them lighter for the 6x hunter and LV guys.
