Double BC,
Did you order a double too? If so, what chambering?

George I got your registration the other day. That is a beautiful piece of wood, will it be done in time for the Safari Rifle Challenge?

Congratulations, George. Looks like a real peach. Purely individual fit, I know, I prefer a tighter radius grip but it never looks as elegant as what you have on order. Hope it shoots well for you.

Looks like all weather plywood.
Smiles to you from Alaska.
Turnabout is fair play.
Remember all of your posts to me and others?

Cal, I believe you may be mistook there, that looks an awful lot like it was soaked in 380 Loctite, nothing will ever come loose that way.

Not what I would call stunning wood. Hope it shoots well. Just not my cup of tea. Best of luck with your new rifle.

Butch tends to leave a lot of wood on his stocks, I finally figured out why! He has hands that should be on a giant not one of normal human beings...I sent him my Jefferys to copy the stock so he has the ability to make a slimmer leaner stock..

Nice stock, I like a dark near black stock on any rifle, not much into the blond stuff..
