Hello the campfire:
Nice work. I would post the skip line checkering on my M70 300 Wby if I were not out of town. I is some of the best I have ever seen on a factory stock.

Is it safe to let for a 58 year old man run around in the woods unsupervised with a high powered rifle?

Since you asked for ideas here's a bad one.....it's a Rem 721 in .300 H&H.

tigger,

I kept my comments to myself on the fisrt pics cause it was quality work, just not my style so to speak.

But your last pic is nice, real nice I like the pattern, tasteful, appeals to my conservative side clap....I'm usually a fleur de'lis checkering guy when I think fancy......BUT:......Yeah no doubt about I like like that!!!!!!!!!

Maybe its a sign of my age but they just don't do glamour like that anymore. I thought the youngsters would like it.

I'd gladly post more pictures but it isn't my gun. You can see more at the Cabela's site. Its the Atkinson & Marquart .375 H&H.

Its not the woman so much as the style. She's pretty but the photographer didn't make it work as well to me.
