What do you think of this blank for a 300 H&H build?

Hi,
Building a 300H&H single shot and wanted to get input on this blank? Comments appreciated. BTW, will be attached w/ a draw bolt.
Cheers,
Bill

Too dark to tell very much.

And pics too small....

OK--clicked on the pics and got a bigger image, Looks OK from what you can see, grain flow is a little choppy through the wrist, but I think would be OK for a 300 H&H...maybe some of the folks who really know will chime in

It appears to be near exhibition grade turkish walnut.

I would be less concerned about wrist grain flow on a two piece stock.

Go for it.....beautiful wood.

I've got a few single shots myself, and I always go for the straighter necks, even with a thru-bolt. I personally like the bottom blank, but either one will be elegant!
