Thanks.
Here's a few more photo's. Some of those stocks are finished but still drying and some of them still need several more coats of Tru Oil.
The completed rifle is English walnut and is my personal rifle. There was a lot of Turkish and Claro walnut in there the day I took the photo's. Some Maple, Mesquite and laminated also.

All those are really beautiful stocks, I always loved the look of quilted and flame maple.

Yes.
The action was squared up, lugs lapped, and a Lilja barrel screwed on.
Using my hand loads, Sig brass, Rem 9 1/2 primer, 95gr. Partition with 47.5gr. of RL26 or 100gr. Interlock with 47.0gr. of RL 26 it will keep 5 shots under an 1" @ 100yds. If I'm up to it 5 shots a Quarter will cover is the norm.
The 100gr. are running at 3100 fps and the 95's are a bit over 3200 fps. The barrel is 22" long.
