    It's possible but totally impractical! It would take a very long time and be very difficult to reach those awkward places. My advice would be purchase a decent router a power sander and chisels ect and start that way fella.

    I really hope the next shoot isn't in Swindon? It's just way to far for me.

    roger, to show something towards how I feel towards your contribution to the whole weekend, I will try and find some sort of exotic welsh wood, cut the whole bloody tree down for you to shelter from the (rare but welcome) sun and then try and make sure the chainsaw works so you can select choice cuts to work your magic and chaz can burn the rest *cough* exotic rare welsh wood? Sounds very interesting Niel :-)

    I've got one or two stocks to do in the summer holls, should keep me in pocket money for a bit.

    Hi guys I'm not to sure of the rules regarding council properties? My understanding was you had to get written permission from the landlord/owner to shoot on what is essentially their property? I'm preparing myself to be corrected :-) Be gentle Chris

    It did make me look at theobens Moley, there is some likenesses in the front I suppose! The side elevation doesn't show the true width of the stock, it's quite narrow in reality, doubt a buddy bottle would fit unfortunately :-) Thinking of a bullpup stock next, see how that goes. Kind Regards Chris

    It's a mix of a few stocks I've seen over the years, there's some MPR ft in there too :-) Difficult to make something completely unique! Much like music, such as Gotye's - Somebody I used to know which has the Baa Black sheep melody in it :-) Chris

    After 50 hours or carving, plainning and laborious sanding I finally put the finishing touches to the first customs stock, created from my prototype. Luckily for me my first customer was a fellow S300 owner making the transference of accurate measurements a whole lot simpler. Given the customers feedback the stock turned out better than he had expected and much to my relief as I designed :-) The stock built specifically for the S300 provided a good center of gravity just forward of the trigger guard and comfortable hand stippled grip, the stock also provided a basic level of left h

    A good choice of wood is the first thing, is it going to lightweight or hunky walnut bells and whistles? Beech is a nice light wood and takes a stain too, that can give you a multitude of finishes to choose from. Have exactly what you want in a stock planned before making a single cut! There's nothing worse than getting half way though and finding out you need to now make a jig to hold your custom shaped stock because you forgot to drill the holes for some attachment that has to be perfectly aligned. One majorly important thing is to get the cutting out for your gun mechanism a

    Interesting reading, especially like the reasoning for using 3-9 mag on scopes. "Versatility" that's my word for today! Laughing Out Loud (not banned text he he) Chris

    Posts crossed bud :-) Not to sure how Dave wants to use the ratty? My young lad has the ratty to shoot both paper at 25yrds and knock downs upto 50yrds. His accuracy after changing to the 3-9x44 scope improved immensely, before all he could see was a black circle taking up two mill dots, but now he can actually see the lettering and each individual hole he's created, it's kind of gone from grouping of inches to centimetres now :-). I take no offence bud, I'm getting a chuckle from these posts anyways :-) Kind Regards Chris

    It's ok andy It's just through experience of using this low powered gun that I found 10x mag at the discussed distances (20-30 yrds) far better for effectively killing vermin. Using the 4x 40 scope originally on the gun I found hitting the "kill zone" much much more difficult to hit, in no way gaurenteed :-(. With 4x mag hitting the animal was easy, but actually picking the area at range (30 yrds) that dispatches the creature quickly with the minimal amount of suffering was near impossible. Although low mag is perfect for low light situations and sub 25 yrds, which is the environ
