FX DRS Custom Wood Stock Development.

Wow you do some really nice work. Personally I would ditch the forend finger grooves and go with either a rounded or angled section instead. Less machine time and I think it looks so much cleaner that way, finger grooves never fit anyway.

ETA: I would also trim the top edge of the forend to a rearward angle, and give the forend less taper like a Manners stock. The rear stock angle could also be stretched out further to allow better fit on rear bag, and give finer elevation adjustment.
Thanks. Always a million design options to consider for all kinds of shooting styles.

Side one roughed out.

I have been real busy with another project to add some more capabilities to the shop, so the FX DRS stock has been sitting in the work que. I have some time to day to do some work on it. I cut the butt to length and installed brass thread insert to attach the recoil pad. I then sanded it to a point that I was ready to raise the grain before final sanding. Here is what it looked like wet with water. I am so wanting to get oil on this one.
