Best looking stock

This is probably the nicest stock I have, clothing a Dumoulin Centurion in 7x64

My CZ-550 has beautiful wood for being a mass-produced rifle. I'll have to post pictures of some of my Weatherbys. :sneaky:

This is my Weatherby Athena IV. Not the greatest picture, this shotgun has a beautiful stock.

What was the story surrounding this one? I can't find the original post, so please forgive me if it is your's.
This I would rate as SPECTACULAR, the best stock I have ever seen.

The accent behind the pistol grip pretty much identifies it as one of the Ferlach school of stock shaping. I think they refer to that as a "bowtie" without which "it looks incomplete" according to Mssr. Borovnik.
I hope the grain turns through the pistol gip or it might be prone to breakage?

Most of my hunts are solo — just me, my rifle, and a good map. Sometimes I tag along with an old buddy for a week in Zimbabwe or South Africa, but more often than not, it’s just me.
Big fan of classic hunting — bolt-action rifles, old-school tracking, and taking the time to really be in the moment.
Just did a podcast, check it out if interested!
