The stippling on the forend has been done with the same stippling that is on the grips (no border). It is quite plain and utilitarian. The original forend was missing, and the owner wanted a new one with a Schnabel.

I just started on a prone rifle, which may also be used for TR. The wood is a spectacular piece of Walnut.

Forming and shaping pistol grip cap. The cap gives a little extra length to the pistol grip.

Removing material to create space for hand below cheekpiece

Shaping Pistol Grip.

A handy source for making the stainless steel washers – worn out barrels.

It’s hard to see in the picture, but it’s made with an offset – not concentric – to be able to save weight on the clamp. Available in different lengths from 9″ to 24″. I’ve also made them in carbon fiber to save weight.

This is the English Walnut stock I’ve been working on, and it’s getting down to the final steps in the finishing process, stippling and custom final finishing. Final pictures to follow.
