Finally made it to the stock finishing portion of my project. 5 coats of Tru Oil on, a few to go. It's looking great!View attachment 509180

Beautiful work sir!!

Love the true-oil. In another time. Save your sanding and mix up with True-Oil to fill the voids. It's faster to fill in the voids. It's been a long time for me to do a stock.
Looking good!

Looks awesome. Did you just glue ebony or did you pin and glue?

Thanks

After about 10 coats of Tru Oil, next step is to install sling swivel studs. I hope it shoots as good as it looks!

That is almost too pretty to take into the field. I love it, but would be very careful with it. Awesome wood and work on your part.

That looks great, excellent job, I probably have way to many guns, but still not as many as I want, I'd give up my stainless synthetic all weather rifles before I'll give up fine walnut and blued steel, thats a rifle to be proud of. Hope you and that rifle have lots of memories in you're future.

Amazing work sir! Well done !

 

[khmplus]

Did some final fit up and light assembly. Now I sent the stock off to get checkered. It will be several weeks before the shooting starts!

very beautifull, my wife just walked by and saw your rifle and said oh very pretty stock. I have forgotten how much work it is and am going to attack a piece of maple I cut down 10 or so years ago
