	Smoke-810 Fantastic stock work ! So you are a lefty. Have you ever done a Stevens M-44 1/2 Pope off-hand style stock? If so, I would like to see a photo if you have time. CMM

	Smoke-810 On your first 414, the one with the high cheek piece, I like the way you carved the wood butt stock where it meets the receiver frame between the two tang pieces. On the original J. Stevens high end factory stocks, they carved a semi-circle panel at that location. I have had a heck of a time replicating those two panels, one on each side, and it takes forever for me to get them "right" and in proportion, one to the other. I may follow what you have done, since it looks so nice. CMM

	creedmoormatch Since I don't own a 44 1/2, I haven't had a reason to make a stock for one. I keep trying to find a Remington # 2, but so far no luck at a reasonable price. I want to try a stock for one of those. tommyauger The scope blocks are 5/32". Don G

	Hey Don! You're still putting those cheek pieces on the wrong side for me! Always good to see your gorgeous stocks!

Don G Don, Having seen your work above, I just assumed that you were a professional stock carver/maker with a shop open for business. If I see a good No.2 Remington, I will be happy to give you a call back. I have been seeing quite a few nice No.4's at the auction houses that I frequent. Creedmoormatch

	J.Louis Pretty good, but I haven't been able to shoot now for some time. These were at 25 yards, 5 shot groups on the bottom half singles on the top. Don G
