Savage Pictures

[Bub]

Just wanted to share with ya"all the finished ML-2.
The stock is a Richards Dual Grip Thumbhole, after fitting the action I decided to use 2 SS sleeves from Mc Master-Carr which I recessed for the button head action screws also from Mc Master-Carr. The remington pillars from Brownells were then cut to length and rest on top of the sleeves, which I think give the the stock in front of the triger guard a better look. Bedded the action and barrel with Pro-Bed 2000. Came out great for my first try at any of this and shoots also as well. Bub.

arm and a leg

WOULD GIVE AN ARM AND A LEG FOR ONE OF THOSE THUMBHOLES . But I am more of a wood butcher than a craftman as you must be. beauitiful stock and workmanship, Best of luck with it, Maybe in the future some one will have a drop in stock for the Savage. I just got a Thumbhole for my Austin Halleck. Lou

That is a real beauty Bub. Thumbholes feel so good when you shoulder them. I hope she shoots as good as she looks.

 

[laker]

Glad to help. Looks real good. So how dose she shoot?

 

[dwhunter]

Those are two great looking rifles guys! It looks like I see a XS Power Rod in one or both of them. What might look even a little better to someone is to sand the black finish off of the Power Rod and reveal the aluminum finish. I did this on my stainless/ laminate ML-II, and it turned out closely matching the finish on the barrel. It's hard to improve on guns that look that good!
