Ah shucks.
The Ruger factory wood is nowhere near as special as that on gunner500's Magnificent Mauser.
All the other Marvelous .400 Whelen rifles showing off here have synthetic stocks.
I am going to save my walnut for Sunday-go-to-meeting,
and just put mine into a B&C Medalist, easy-peasy, no barrel lug required,
no matter for lack of visible cross bolts to replace the hidden ones for show.
Just need to sand out the B&C barrel channel to fit the No.5 sporter.
