Just a quick question
« on: December 30, 2011, 06:06:29 PM »
How much do new rifle stocks cost?? I know that it varys, and i would look it up myself but my work computer does not let me access certain sites (weapons and other fun sites  :chuckle: :chuckle:) anyway just thought i would ask cause i am refinishing my Remington .280 Rifle stock and was wondering if it was worth my time.

refinish it, put about 14 hand rubbed coats of linseed oil on it...it will be indestructable....

I think around $150 to $200. I'd say it's well worth it to refinish the one you already have.

Stocks can be had from about $50 to well north of $3,000.

:yeah:

And don't get in a rush. Take your time. Fine steel wool for every coat and let it dry.
