butchlambertStock for my Hyper Single Falling Block
I just got the butt stock and fore end back from Kathy Forster.I bought the wood from Tom Turpin. Kathy did the checkering and Bernie Harrell did the stock carving. It has a trap door butt plate.
It is chambered in 257 Roberts.
It is going to Bailey Bradshaw to reshape the lever, a new quarter rib, and rust bluing.

Tsquare2Butch,
Looks great. One thing about that stick, they don't get any drier or more stabilized than that one. I'm really happy that it turned out so well.
