| I once saw a stock painted what the owner called oregano. It was sorta halfway between a forest green and olive drab, it looked quite nice. |

| what terrain are you going to be hunting in? Personally I would leave it as is.

| I think brown just looks right with a red pad.  |
| | |

| With the red pad, I would have to agree with CAS: either brown or dark tan. The carbon fiber does look pretty cool though by itself. |

one of us
| I'd go with brown.
As others have said it will look great with the red recoil pad.
BTW - Very cool caliber choice!
Did you stick with standard Mashburn dimensions or go with a longer throat for getting the most out of those 175gr bullets?
Not to long ago Gene Simillion put together a 7mm Mashburn for a local guy here in NH and
he is thrilled with the rifle & caliber.

| Let me guess. Bob F?
Bob and I have emailed back and forth on the cartridge quite a bit along with a few other guys.
It is throated for the 175's. |
