Frank, Mine is also 24", and I keep reminding myself, I need a 30 caliber crowning tool. what crown there is on mine was file formed on the lathe.
I Like your stock a lot, and think it's perhaps the nicest conversion of an original stock. Checkering and color are great

Frank my first deer rifle was an 189? Argentine Mauser bought for me by my dad when I was 12. 7.65 Argentine and we bought at Woolworths in downtown Houston. the place had racks of military surplus rifles. I later got a dandy 6.5x55 SWedish Mauser Carbine probably $18 and those long nickel plated bullets. Springfields o3A3 ,British 303 Jungle carbines with flash hider, 1898 Mausers, M1 Carbines, Garands 30/06 you name it a kid could get lost. I sporterized the Argentne myself and shot a few deer with it til I got a Swede Carbine. Great memories. Thx for sharing
