The .300 Win Mag at the top is a Pro Varmint (nee Tacticool) in pepper laminate. The .243 Win beneath it is a Tacticool in standard plywood. The .308 Win third from the top is a Platinum in forest camo laminate. The bottom .450 Bushmaster is a Classic in nutmeg laminate with some heavy modifications (and is missing its cheek riser).
LOVE the varmint thumb hole ...

@03Mossy, what kind of laser grips did you get? AND more importantly, do you like it? I was on the fence, but never have seen the results and decided against it. (Perhaps you can start a thread and include some close up pics???)
It's the full wrap round/ribbon texture checkering. Since this gun will see a lot of hunting in the snow it needed some grip. Regular laminates are aweful when you get snow on your gloves. I really do like the way it looks and feels. Yes I can start a new thread this weekend with close ups.
I went with the Heritage and added extras 'cause I wanted a more classic look, but am pleased. They do good work. I'd order from them again.
