Title: Just a quick question
Post by: biggamehunter 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.

Lots of memories with this stock thats why I am doin it

:yeah:

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