It is really a kids before christmas impaitence experience waiting for these projects to come together and when you have one aspect like a stock that rewards a bit of TLC like that it can only up the anticipation stakes. Some really nice wood there eljefe that will make a handsome rifle.

Thanks,Rick.
Absolutely,Von G, Christmas IS when its ready and anticipation stakes is the operative statement,eh?
Wiped dwn the stock and its got the beginning of a soft,muted eggshell patina.just what I was hoping for.Looking at both the stocks gives me ideas about slimming down this one-shades of the petite Brno 22 stock? The Grendel IS planned for a 11 year old,who loves her powder smoke
Dont have my workbench etc in this place since I shifted here.I sit on the stoop and work away in the new found sun

[eljefe]

been a while since I got here, and the same story applies to the stock.I redid the forend with a rough bastard and 80-160 grit W&D
this is what it looks like now.

redo of the finish,



And...
