The hard part is done. Getting the outside profile is the hardest part. The inside can be done by machine and hand work. Would take a little while but can be done.

Hey Mark,

Guess you have a never quit attitude, in that boat also, but...... you'd need machining skills and a mill to work that stock and drawings. A fine project for a skilled man with the right tools but an interesting wallhanger for me. Do well with a stock that needs a little inletting work, but that stock project is well beyond the scope of ninety nine percent of people who are "Good with wood".

It would take a very special and skilled man to buy one of those and finish it right and drop a rifle into it. Good luck to any who dare to try.

Death to not having all the tools to do any job ya' wanna' try,
