    If they did make a "luxury shank of walnut" model, I bet it would be in the modern fist-hole style after the HW100.

    It would be interesting if they brought out a 98 stocked 98 with a 98 barrel ... in Walnut ...

    ... because that would mean you'd need to remove the buttpad, drill a huge hole in the back of the wood, and fill it with lead, so that it balanced something like it needs to with that sleeved barrel.

    Or ... you could just have it in Beech ... and be more concerned with how it shoots rather than how much the Walnut matches your Realtree lederhosen ... which is probably why the Germans leave their rather splendid springers in Beech. Although the Germans do like a drop of lederhosen.
