Tactical / Precision Rifles w/WOOD

[Jaegerr]

Do you sell these? I’d love to make my own one day but not in the cards right now

A few action shots of a couple stocks from this weekend's NRL Hunter match. I can't begin to express how much fun it was!

Running my 6.5 Creedmoor with the reddish brown curly maple...

Shooting in style!

A friend asked for a 223 to practice with and have cheap fun on the range out to 200 yards.

This is what he got...

Origin SA
20" Proof, 223 Rem

7lb 4.4oz

Dude, those are very impressive. Nice work!!

Man alive, you have a gift. And a duplicator.
But mostly, a gift.
Those tiger maple stocks just hit differently.

 

[43.6N]

Are you reinforcing the grip in any way?
That has to be a lot of stress on the grain with these vertical grips and high combs.

 

[AMG04]

I havent reinforced any. I have almost 200 rounds through my 300 PRC with no signs of stress through the wrist.

I also hits 10s of thousands of baseballs over the years with a maple bat and that handle was much thinner than the wrist of these stocks... maple can take some abuse.

Hahaha. Fair point.
Again I’m beyond impressed.

Man if you ever sell stocks let me know. Those are gorgeous

If you want another stock shape for your inventory, I’ll let you borrow my McMillan mountain tracker LR after rifle season wraps up.

 

[AMG04]

Working on something a little different this time. Interesting change of pace...

 

[Nine Banger]

What do you think about using blocks of sapele or poplar for cheap youth stocks that can be passed along or thrown away?

I'm intrigued by this process it seems like it would be easy to use tape or bondo to make pattern stocks with palm swell and length of pull adjustments before you make a nice stock.

It's great to be self reliant.

 

[Moccasin]

Very nice work.

 

[AMG04]

I make a lot of templates out of cheap maple that doesn't have much figure.

Ive been trying to find a good mechanical LOP system that I could add to a stock fo my kids. Something like Manners uses on the Night Stalker that way the LOP can grow with them.

That'll be money when you figure it out.

Something like a Kick-Eeze kit that comes with a pad and 2-3 spacers and a butt plate that holds them on that all grind to fit would be sweet. On a maple or poplar stock the kids could paint themselves. Sell it for $499.00

A 3d printer might accomplish this as a "close enough".

 

[AMG04]

Color goes on today, just had to do some final fitting.

 

[AMG04]

Finally got a color I'm happy with on the CZ and slathered on the first coat of oil.



This was the inspiration...

 

[43.6N]

what was the recipe for that deep red?
Tung oil and synthetic dye?
