    hopefully the wood wont be so soft on my stock, and the spliting issue wont arise.

    your stock is looking very good , i look forward to some pics tomorrow.
    You'll have to wait spent the day sorting out some shooting land

    Ha!

    I've taken loads of them, need to get an upload done

    Today it was stained a greeny brown, nutmeg and grey are sooooo dull and just the same as all the other rifles out there.....

    NOT for the faint hearted!!

    Still it's had a good coat of stain and 2 coats of danish oil with 'terabine' to make it go 'off' quicker and dry harder, MUST be Danish oil teak oil is too thick and dark....

    Pics to follow soon (patience dear boy )

    S/S Scopes

    I bought 2 super sniper scopes fixed 20x I think they are very good for the money I use mine for F class target shooting one on my Remmie 40 X 308 and the other on my BSA CFT 6.5 x 55 ive not used them at low light but with a 30 mm tube they shouldnt be that bad, mill dot reticule and unique rear paralax adjuster in the same place were the zoom is on adjustable mag scopes so its easier to focus from the normal shooting position. All in all avery good scope for the money.
    I love my country, but fear my government
