Making a new stock

[Rod N. Gunn]

I hear ya Joe, if I'm not dabbling with some project I'm not happy. I have largely redirected my energy toward fly rods so I don't mess up any of my guns. Keep us posted on your project.

What about adding a pad? A pad could be added that preserves most of the inletting of the SBP. I have a BH that has a pad that retains the screw holes and the top inletting of the SBP.

That's a possibility, if, as you said, it would work with the odd curve at the heel and the cutout at that spot for the skeleton buttplate. Anyone know of a source for such a recoil pad? It still doesn't allow me to buy a blank and (screw it up , or) make a complete stock for the gun. The wood it came with is nothing special anyway, I don't think (I like highly figured wood).
