I like it.
I have had one of the stocks, and it took alot of work to finish the fit of the action.
Rifle turned out good. Did he say if he had done any load work with it yet?
 
I had a fair amount of fitting to make everything fit just right. The outside looked like a beaver carved it but the customer took care of shaping, sanding and finish himself. He had it out for barrel break in and some testing with some 250g SMK's and they worked well through the chronograph but is waiting for some slightly better weather to try some 300g Bergers and 300g SMK's.

Nice lookin' rig. Guess that's not a Joel Russo stock.
 
There is a huge fifferance in the way Richards stocks are gotten compared to Joels...Richards don't even compare

Nice build Kevin
