It didn't turn out as planned, however I'm not sure I'm upset with the results. The paint just never got thick enough to make a webbed pattern. I was a little bored with my .35 Whelen's gray stock, I had tried selling this rifle a couple of times to fund other projects but never got a serious buyer, and it went to auction and never received a bid. So the money came for the other projects and I decided to paint the stock to make it look a little better.

I'd much rather just send you the bolt and have it come back fluted! However we've already discussed that one since you said you'd never flute one again.
