Size:  317.5 KB That's the finalish weight. still yet to final sand/polish. yet to put a buttpad on it tho. but to put in perspective it does include the trigger guard... so I'm super happy with the weight.
    Looking back at it I'm confident I could have dropped a bit more weight taking more time at the stage of drilling out the butt and the forend... but no regrets for a first attempt... And for those worried about the strength - I have been hunting with a Paulowina stock with only a sealer coat for a year now on my Grendel (Pics in an earlier post. Granted ive not fallen headfirst down a slip face with a deer on my back while carrying the rifle but I don't plan to lol, Last time I did that I landed in A&E and stuffed up the end of a great roar trip
