I might have missed it but what paint?
Looks like a nice, grippy finish.
My 243 MT has lost it's rough finish and has become a little slick, was thinking about a topcoat. Flav's is a mix of three different Rustoleum cans. Multicolored Textured first, dusted with another color (Forest Green from the camo line) and then about a can of matte clearcoat. You can just keep adding clear till it flows out how you want. Working on a way to do something similarly uber with Duracoat. Basically the same thing I did with my 721RSPT&G but obviously went darker green than on Flavs which had a tan base. Here's the stock with just Rustoleum Grey Multicolor Texture, 7Express phase 2. It can go on thick and absolutely needs to cure for days but seems to be a pretty solid product. There's brown and a harder to find green too that look ok out of the can but dusting over with another color looks good to my eye. Before in its original 80's RS glory As a 270 SS BDL, solid lighter green. Good looking combo. And another time in it's first 7 Express phase without texture... It's part beaver! MtnBoomer how much would you charge to do that to my Mini Action stock? Got another one on the way and will have a better idea after working it up. It's fairly time consuming but wayyy under a Micky LOL. PMs welcome.

Pretty fancy Boomer, nice work!
Thanks for the info, pretty sure I've seen the textured Rustoleum paint at the hardware store.

Dave That looks like it may have been in the tipi. If so, is that why you got rid of it?

You guys want me to do the McMillan deal for the mini? If I did it, I'd do 100 so the mold was mine.
We need to decide on a pattern... Yes please. Snagged the last mini you guys had, and already planned on trying my hand at stock slimming. Would be nice to have a backup plan for after I butcher it...

It seems that Howa has a new "alpine" rifle on the website with a high tech stock on it. Wonder what the chances are that they'd inlet stocks for the mini action...

You can call them and ask but I don't see any company committing until they see a commitment.
McMillan won't even inlet for a Rhiimaki and those things have been around since BC.

Sounds like a sweet deal, this threads got me thinking it'd work great riding in the tractor cab all summer.
