[QUOTE="CapeEsperance, post: 1700704, member: 74181"] was watching the comments on these stocks. after a less than satisfactory (poor QA) from another prominent vendor (finished stock) I bought a rosewood laminate from richard's microfit for my wife to replace factory plastic stock on a rem 700 vtr (.223). Agree the 99% finish was much rougher than expected, but it came together quite nicely. i don't have any before pictures as i went right to work. stock smoothed up quite nicely with 1/4 sheet sander and hand sanding. Had to expand the barrel channel and trigger area in milling machine. had to shorten the stock cue to small size of my better half. cheek piece reduction was significant! waiting on grind-to-fit limb saver to arrive this weekend, then will remove wood in action area (milling machine again) [ATTACH]147029[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]147030[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]147031[/ATTACH] and bed rifle.
