I have been accused of hating woodstocks by one nimrod here and now another accuses me of doting on them !
I am taking the "Mauser Scoping" material to its own devoted thread for contributions by other members.
Meanwhile, I certainly think I know the difference between an ass and a moon bead.
BTW, that XL White bead is on a rifle in a Brown Precision fiberglass stock,
my first love in rifle stocks,
then it was McMillan,
then it was HS Precision,
now it is a B&C Medalist.
Wood is for when I am feeling nostalgic.
