Looks good Alec. Remington 700 BDL. I’ve got one in 30-06. 1985 model. Had an ADL version in 22-250 with STD barrel but someone ran off with it one night from my home. Anyway, great job in fitting that butt plate! Thanks for sharing
@AlecPeirceAtTheRanch same here. Some people tell me it's OCD, I just explain I take pride in my work, and it's a quality you don't see much of these days. Maybe a touch of OCD😅😅jk
Good point, but it was just mix and apply thin coats, 3 times till over filled then slow sand down. Will do if butter fingers ever lets it slide off again. A
Have you owned any surplus firearms? You would’ve been fortunate to see all of the cheap and plentiful options from decades ago. I’m finally getting into the hobby but everything is scarce and/or too expensive for war time quality.

When it calls for 600 grit and the man takes it up to 2000. Here's a
guy I'd want working on my firearms 👍👌
Thanks, I have been known to be "finicky" about my guns.

Would have liked to seen the process of the wood putty repair of the stock.

Ok, thank you
Looks good, but I believe that the butt plate bottom screw hole in the stock has been cracked on both sides of the stock.
I'll check it when I take them out for sighting in before hunting season starts here.

Sorry no. Only a few favourites then they go to the grandkids.
