    I'm alway's second guessing myself. Wondering if I made the right choice, guess I'll know when it get's here. 44mag, how does your's compare to the VLP stock ? Or do you have a factory VLP ?

    It's a SSS Classic Varminter stock. It has a 2 1/2 wide forearm compared to 2 1/4 on VLP. Its pistol grip is longer and more vertical. And the cheek is slightly higher.

    That's one thing I was wondering, I need a high cheek, didn't want to go with the adjustable option.

    Re: Counting the day's

    Well here is the only pic I have of my gun. I did cut in my own adjustable cheek in the stock. I made a push button lock
    with the cheek being spring loaded. It works like a half-nut to lock it in place. So I would say the butt stock would be
    about 3/32 taller if it wasn't cut. I also cut down the pistol grip area to give my meaty thumb muscle a better fit.






    This was taken in August on a PD hunt in SD. I will have to find some time to take some more pics of it.

    It's a VRS (Versatile Rest System) by Lone Star Field Products.

    We used one mounted on a tripod. And this one was mounted on a 4wheeler.

    How and what did you use to "finish" the stock once you got it to your door ??

    Re: Counting the day's

    Once it was filled I used Chem-pak aerosol Gun Sav'R Custom Oil Gunstock Finish from Brownells.
    Item number 209-101-014. Very easy to put on.

    This was recommended to me by one of my customers that makes and refinishes shotgun stocks. He is using this now over Truoil.
    This product has no yellow cast to its color.
