Great job on the inletting. I really like the shape of the butt. I have built a couple of stocks in my life and there is more work than a person would think. Good Job NMshooter.

Thanks for all the kind comments. Really had a lot of fun doing these. Got to test the .25 with the new stock out with Wyshadow and JimNM today. Rifle shot very well. Made a few longs shots. Dispite the bad weather we had a fun time. We have a great bunch of guys here in New Mexico!

Very nice work. How long did it take you to make each one?

Thanks guys,
Plinker you planted the seed for me to do this! 
Mick, I'm kinda obscessive compulsive so once I started I kept going the whole weekend. The longest time was for the linseed oil to set. One rifle is still curing. I am fortunate to be in an arid climate or I would have had to wait 1 week between coats. I put about 3 fulls days per rifle preparing the wood. I was able to apply a coat every 1-2 days. I put 6 coats of linseed oil on both. I plan to bed both rifles as well.
