AB2506;
Thanks for putting up photos of the finished product, it looks about right to my eyes and hopefully it's the last thing many, many dogs will see. wink

Regarding the Wildcat stock, I'll be interested to know how you like it?

I've worked with Stuart on two stocks thus far, one for a Mauser that I own and one for a Model 70 for a chap in our church. Stuart was very good at communicating with me on both of them and I was very pleased with the stiffness and overall quality of the two I worked with thus far.

It was an interesting solution your smith came up with to fit a Kimber, I'll have to file that one away.

Thanks again for the photos and good luck in the upcoming hunting season.

Regards,
Dwayne

Finally got around to taking photos of the rifle since it was tweaked.

I did not like the look of the pad he had put on it, besides he left the length of pull too long even for my monkey arms. I also wanted a little more variation in the coloration.

As you can see, the last couple of years we have gotten early snows that have not melted away. Makes wish I had considered a white gun, but my theory was that a lot of the time patches of dead grass are intermixed with snow because of our chinooks, so tan is good.

Final product.
