looking good!!! i don't have any Boyds, i got Richards and High Plains gunstocks.
i have to redo my pictures, but here's a Sapphyre laminate from High Plains, 20 Vartarg if your interested. there is also a 444 Marlin barrel.
i bought a Richards Wolverine gunstock in Apache Golden, but i think that the rifle is too heavy, it is 9 or 10lbs. i should have shaved some weight on the stock. it is bulky!!!
i did Minwax Antique Oil, about 2 or 3 coats. then polyurethane oil semi-gloss and mineral spirits (3 poly: 1 spirits) about 2 or 3 coats. i don't do wipe on poly, its too expensive when you can do poly oil/spirits for $10-15 less.
