Cheers Geordie,
Gotta admit, when they opened the box at the RFD to show me my rifle , happy was an understatement
I'm a sucker for a nicely figured piece of walnut.
True graded walnut is all but gone these days. Someone, somewhere will be enjoying my custom grade 1 walnut stock which was inletted for a Ripley AR5s (sold about 15 years ago). I'd travelled the length and breadth of England searching for the right blank. More the pity, I've only got memories as I dont have any photos of it.
Thankfully, people like your good self now produce stunning looking stocks which make up for the ever reducing quality of the walnut available.

One does ones best
Agree totally regarding the dearth of decent timber available at a reasonable price. It takes me all my time just to get hold of usable blanks.
