Here's what you need to find out. Is the blank quarter sawn or slab sawn? If it's quarter sawn what you see on the outside is pretty much what you'll see when it's turned. If it's a slab sawn you will probably have the same amount of figure as you see before it's turned but it may nor be in the same places.
I'll post some pics when I get home.
Great rifle Butch! I have got to go see it in person one day.
Terry Could expound a little more on quarter sawn or slab sawn. How are either one cut?
