Looks familiar, nice work! Paint is the next thing on my list if I like how the updated stock shoots!

I absolutely got the inspiration (stole) from your posts in this thread!

Glad to be of service! I got the idea from the YouTube video I shared so I can’t claim it either!

Timber is much easier to work with

That's really nice! I'm guessing you built this for an F-class competition gun?
What was the make of the original laminate stock? And for giggles, what barrel, and what total weight scoped?

View attachment 766041Shoots better. Now it needs a cheek riser and a paint job.

Your rifle mods were cool, and I'm liking this shooting setup. Can you share more, e.g. what mat is that, what front bag (usually clipped on?) to what kind of backpack, etc?

I see you've made 31 posts in 12 years, sorry to blow up your lurker status lol

It is a Boyd’s stock, I bought it really cheap because no one wanted the pink, it is just something that I did for fun, I have modified it a fair bit since then

Latest version, new barrel and a serious diet

Did you sand it back down after painting it green? Shape looks great. In an odd way I kinda like the visible improvements.

Yeah, I didn’t like the green and the negative comb was too aggressive
