Nicely done Chris, especially the mullered borders which not many people do correctly. As for constructive comments, it looks like the SSBP needs to be engraved, and the screws should be indexed to 12 oclock position I believe. I think the originals were blued, not case colored, but I might be wrong on that.

Hi Dean,as to the pattern,I had seen so many subtle variation's over the past year on the C grade's with point's and rounded border's that I used one which I thought would match the border on the forend

Hi Mike,the SSBP will be engraved when fund's allow,the screw's are indexed now ..that was a shag up on my part they are blued as well ,the camera did some brightening of the color's as with the stock.

Thank-you fella's for the comment's
