Heck Jerry - I'd love to have the back half of a Nesika stock grafted on to the front of a sporter stock! Wood or composite!

Yes, was originally a 260 CDL with fluted barel but didn't shoot. Went through 1500 rounds in load developement, neck turning and run out check. Stock originally looked good, if you want a hunting rifle, but rifle fit didn't work for silhouette shooting, Pistol grip small, comb too low, length of pull too short for me as my right thumb kept hitting me in the nose on recoil.
So a change was needed, got out a hammer and chisle and a couple hours later,
VOILA.

Looks fantastic B. Please bring it to the next Nanaimo shoot, as I would love to see it up close and personal.
