CW I picked the pattern on Row 6, Column C. It seems to have more red highlights on my monitor than the final product, but I still like it.

Did they do the prep work on the stock (sanding, etc.)?

Karnis, Yes, I just took the barrelled action out of the stock and sent it to them. Bob

Is the stock smooth or does it have the textured finish?
I asked because I have a KS stock and a Winlite stock that I've considered painting, but they both have a textured finish.

The finishes are smooth and thin so the texture of your stock will come through fine. I have 3 dipped shotguns all with texture and they look as they did when new just camo now

AZBob - Do you know the reference number to the pattern you used?
Thanks,

Hydro-Dip has the most wood choices of anyone I've seen before; http://www.hydro-dip.com/all_patterns.htmI've used Tarjac to do camo dips and they are excellent to deal with, very good jobs done on three guns. www.tarjac.com

I knew you were going to join in but I thought it would be something about getting your wood dipped. Lotsa wild things wave there brightly colored willys in the air to attract the opposite sex, it just might work.

Boy, I'm surprised to see this 3-year old thread surface again. I looked at the hydroimaging website for the first time in a long while and it looks a lot different, so I can't really reference the wood grain pattern I chose.
Three years later, I've hunted with the rifle several times. I've put a few dings in the finish, and haven't bothered trying to cover them up. The gray of the undercoating shows through when it gets scratched. The finish of mine is a little slicker than the original TI stock finish. Still it's a good look, and I don't regret doing it.
