Yea this is another rifle i built, can't take all the credit for it cause alot was already done. The Stock was a pre-cut California style which I was originally going to it onto a Weatherby vanguard .300 wby. But one weekend I when it was hanging to dry after a mud rub someone knocked it down and it broke a pic I will post in a bit has details of the crack.
I was upset to say the lease but waste not want not right? So I repaired the cracks and bought a Howa 1500 chambered in .270 win., reshaped the stock to fit it and my little brother (lol he's a long armed guy so it's a long length of pull) refinished it and called it a day.
The grain on this stock is beautiful which was why i didn't want to waste it. Walnut with maple spacers and Ebony accessories. it would be a great hunting rifle as it's weight isn't bad and the balance is perfect if you ask me. Good for deer.

Boy oh boy would I love that, but alas, I have a bad case of the poor! However, just entertain me with this, do you think you could make a stock for a 91/30 mosin nagant? The stock I have on mine is good and sturdy, but it's very worn... I think having another nice, classy stock to put on it when I go out to the range would be nifty (and reserve the war-issue stock for hunting/clambering around the woods). Who knows, I might actually get a job and money one day...
.... I really dislike making stocks for war era weapons from scratch as they were never designed for show. Getting a new stock would be easy enough and making one not too hard (I think would have to double check the design) the real issue is money in that one, if you want a nice piece of wood (not that some of the drop in stocks aren't nice, they just aren't "Good wood" as I like to call it) but as I was saying a good piece of wood can cost hundreds of collars then I would have to carve it out mostly by hand (lack a mill at the moment). I can see what is out there for ya to see if maybe they don't have some "good wood" stocks for the mosin but we would have to see.
