This is looking pretty good! I wonder how a pepper laminate would take to a color stain?

[jalmeter29]

Just put 2nd and final Polly coat on. After it drys I'll assemble and post pictures tomorrow or next day.

So the question still remains... Do I remove the black duracoat from the stainless barrel and action? I was never really a fan of black on black.

Going for a fancy F-Class range queen look?

[jalmeter29]

Yeah kinda. Was thinking just a fun range gun with a story.

2nd coat dried. Partly assembled haven't put the recoil pad on or sling studs.

I'm liking it so far :)

What do you guys think? its not perfect don't look to close.

Personally, for the range only, I like ss on a black stock

[jalmeter29]

Finished stock. Sanded duracoat off and polished the barrel and action to neer merror finish. Waiting for ss trigger guard from Boyds. Soon i want to make a larger tacticool bolt handle.

I'll try and post nicer pictures this weekend. So far so happy with it. :)

I'd say that looks pretty good compared to the factory finish. You now have an awesome stock with character, and since you've got sweat into it, it will mean more than just an off the shelf stock.

I must say your pics have improved dramaticly, and the rifle looks nice too.

Dang pix look better than savage catalog pix! Nice work on the polishing.

[jalmeter29]

Thanks guys. I'm doing a little work to the bolt lift effort. Any tips or tricks?
