    Really nice work. I'm somewhat jealous of your manly skills here.

    Cheers Toby. Thought you might comment about the non checkering. I decided to leave it as is for now , at least until I develope the\required skills.

    Is that the rifle you had up at the TECT Park NZDA Range the other weekend? Very nice workmanship.

    Sweet. That stock you have built for the SAUM is mint. This one looks just as nice. Did you float the barrel on the Ruger? interested to see how it shoots compared to the original stock.

    Both Rugers, SAUM and WSM are floated and beaded with pillars. SAUM started life as 270wsm

    Cheers stug. Yeah pretty happy with it . Finishing took longer than it should have, but learned a bit along the way, should be able to cut time by half next time.

    Beautiful! , looks too nice to use
    some checkering would help break up the shiny finish tho.
