[QUOTE="isaaccarlson, post: 2366949, member: 33850"] You won the wood lottery. I fon't know if they use a "mud" finish on 457's, but they did on the 455's. Mine looked ok to me at first, and others said it was beautiful. I had to relieve the bolt handle slot and got a glimpse of the wood without the mud finish. I decided right there to strip the whole thing and oil it. I am very glad I did because it is amazing what was hiding under the mud. The barrel on my 455 is floated and it shoots great. Rimfires don't have too much vibration to worry about. I can fit 13 bills under mine and it looks good with that much clearance. [/QUOTE]
