This one needs/demands new wood. Boyds sells original pattern forends. Their butts are available in XX walnut, but their pics are horrible so no telling what I'd get. The wrist looks a little stubby. However midwayusa has a pick of a Boyd butt that looks perfect, but they out of stock. I'm thinking I want something mid-grade, not over the top but with a just bit of curl. When I'm done practicing on scraps, I think I'll make my checkering debut on this one. Has anyone used one of the Boyds stocks? are they indeed as ugly and misshapen as their single photo lets on? or is the wrist longer like in their version sold on midwayusa?
