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?

Nice Report! Im about to pull the trigger on booking the LDE with Patrick. I have been talking about it with him for about 3 yrs now. Romain hit me up the other day with an offer I can't refuse for 2027.

Andrew, I commented that your on 375 H&H for sale was the fair price.

Like I commented, my classic stainless has the original 24” barrel.

Did you buy yours with the barrel already cut down to 21” or did you do it (or a gunsmith)?

You might have edited your post on the PH in the Bubye. I know the PH and is a wonderful person and a fmaily man and runs a succesful business in Zim and just doesn't want the attention that the internet offers, the ugly kind.
