Thanks guys. Checkering was filled with Devcon 10110 epoxy.

I probably have about $2000 into the rifle total. The consumables are cheap. Probably $100 total between epoxy, paint and abrasives. Most of it it had left over from doing this stock:

I probably have about 30 hours into it. A lot of that was in wet sanding and filling. I recommend giving it a shot!
