here you go Dave, and thank you very much for the help
that carbide fit great - took out 3.5 oz of lead - added 3.8 of carbide and that .3oz is exactly how much more the scale shows the finished project weighs i did not refinish the whole stock- lots of character in the wood and the metal would look out of place- I scraped the repaired area to smooth it out and very lightly sanded it- then blended in new varnish with the old by applying it with a pad then a light buffing with #2 pumice then rottenstone- not at all unhappy with the results
