    First custom gunstock

    Yeah i probably will take the advice and go with a preinletted one. I dont have the money or shop space to buy a drill press or planer and hand drilling holes might come out straight for a tobacco pipe but i doubt "good enough" will be accurate for a gunstock. Thanks everybody

    What rifle combo to choose

    Thank you all for your input! I am trying to stay at or under 1000 for the build. I do not reload and just dont see myself being able to dump real money into guns for a while so thats why i want something capable of longer ranges, even if i dont take them out that far. I am trying to practice...
