Sure can. Not a whole lot to it, just a factory Winchester Model 70 classic 375 H&H barreled action sitting in a McMillan super grade swirly stock. Also put a New England express rear sight on the rifle. Talley quick-release rings and bases. Leupold VX-III 1.75-6x32.

This one is 50/25/25 of Olive, black, and white. I'm sweet on that color combo too, with stainess or black metal. Please excuse the camera-phone quality photography.

40 purple, 40 white, 20 black. I was going to use it on my 223AI, but wound up using a VLS 700 stock. Shame that an A5 sits naked in the corner of my gun room, but I'll get it set up sometime soon.

Does anyone think 60/20/20 white, light gray, dark gray would look good with a graphite black action/rings/black scope and stainless barrel?

I want to do some variation of Brother Bill's on the previous page of 60/20/20 white/light gray/dark gray. But it's hard to believe his stock came out that way with those percentages. It would be a total 60% white to 40% total gray, but there's no more white than gray on that stock. I'm trying to stay away from a completely white base color. Maybe I should do a 40/30/30 light gray/white/dark gray?
