[QUOTE="Firecat, post: 452998, member: 22600"] My rifle entered it's life as an 700 SPS stainless. Totally disgusted with the stock, I purchased a new wood BDL take off. However, along the way I had decided to bed the original SPS with Devcon plastic steel. To my surprise, the Devcon did adhere to the horrible plastic compound and worked our rather nicely. During the process I also filled in all of the voids in the SPS stock with dental lab acrylic(I had some clear stuff that worked nicely). This not only stiffened the stock significantly, but added some much needed weight as well. Seeing how I still had the old SPS stock, I figured that I would try my first paint job on it. Nothing ventured nothing gained right? Here is how it turned out. I was pleasantly surprised. The base color is Olive with tan and black speckling.
