Great work! Thanks for sharing & keep the pics coming
Is there cast on the stock, or just the angle of the last pic?

All but done. On the oil finish. Hand rubbed tru oil only. Here is 6 coats dry. All glass bedded. A few more coats, and time to shoot. Last couple photos are the 6th coat dry. 8 to go.

Gorgeous! Nice to see all that effort coming together for you. Really looking forward to seeing it complete - RU doing a buttplate or pad?
A Pachmayr lightweight F250 brown pad might match up nicely. Congrats on your accomplishment!!

Man how awesome. That is a great looking stock and it will feel even better knowing you did it

Done deal.

Done deal.

Superb work and great patience.

Now, take a business card-sized piece of paper and put your name, the date you did the stock, what you do for a living and what/where you hunt. Put it in the anchor hole in the stock and hundreds of year from now, future generations will marvel at your work.

(don't you wish such a card was in some of the old guns you have purchased? You just made some history, Sir.)

Checkering?

Great job!

Checkering?

Not sure. I shot a ton with it this weekend, and never noticed a difference. Not this fall anyway. Maybe this winter.

Just got a 2nd gun. Planning on a new set for it as well. Likely will go more figured wood. Now that I have a feel for the madness.

Sorry I missed that LOL. I did a Kick Eez pad sand to fit. She still looks great after a bunch of field trials shot, 3 nationals, training twice a week, and hunting. A few dings. So I might sand her a bit and re oil after this years season. One last national Cocker to shoot, and some regular trials. I never did any checkering. I have 0 issue with grip, and I like the wood look not getting covered up by checkering. I was skeptical that it would be a "need", but it absolutely is not.

Sorry I missed this. Long over due reply. Yes it was cast for right hand. Hence the odd angle in the photo. Exaggerated by the amount of wood I still needed to sand. I should have posted more pics during the process. Its not that bad. I had help from a good friend who does it, on the phone. Eventually you get there. I will see if I can find the pics and post some more.
