Also have a #3 in 223 that I use from time to time for deer. And a 338 WM that I don't have a picture of.

Looks like a heck of a shooter! Is that a painted wood stock or a composite? Also, what chambering?

End product is great, but the process to get there is not for the feint of heart. Of course I had a lot of help from a fellow CF member that stepped in and provided guidance. I also have a set (B style) made by Fiberpro, which I don’t think is in business anymore. This set has a nicer fit to start with. I am just deciding if I am going to use it on another project.

It's a standard 1H that came with Circassian walnut left over from the Boddington series of No. 1's: I have a handful of 100 yd targets just like this and this is the last time I shot it on paper:
