    Another stock project -M98 25/06

    Doing some more CF. This time for a Czech Mauser 98, kindly sold to me by GaryP. Also got the 25/06 barrel off here too, good fellas on this forum.
    Got some Blackburn bottom metal and Mitch Maxberry screwed the barrel and Leupold bases on for me.
    Trying some flannel camo in the weave for the first time. Should be interesting to see if it works out. Did the inletting tonight.

    A bit more progress. Need to blue the metal work. And find another scope (thats a mate's Leupold -is it just me but style wise those Freedom models are horrendous) Stock is pretty much finished. Used shower floor stick-on panels for the grip areas, peeling them out after the last epoxy coat. Worked quite well, a few defects here n there, mainly those pesky air bubbles from when you don't use the vacuum kit.

    I bought a cheap thin flannel shirt from the Warehouse then laid cut panels into the mold after the first coat of resin
