That wood is worth fussing with!
I 100% agree on the fussing with! The wood is amazing but I would not want to mess with the checkering at all!
There was a guy about a year ago on ebay that was selling Pre 64 Model 70 stocks that were very close to this style. He was either a duplicator or selling off a few that had been duplicated for $900. Very much to these lines but with straight grain. I was offered one when I was asking on another forum for Pre 64 stocks.
If it is a 264 Win Mag Improved I would love to know what it is. I am a huge fan of the 264 mentioned. Maybe a 264 Clark?
