I have a White Bison with the Myrtle Stock. I love the gun and know they have a reputation for breaking in the throat of the grip. I believe it depends on how the wood grain flows and there's no way to know until you have an issue.
The gun:
I put cardboard first, then a towel on the vise. I came at it with a 3/8" drill bit with an extension. I was very concerned I'd miss the angle.
I had a 3/8" oak dowel which would eventually be cut to size. I inserted the dowel to check my angle.
I made it through the throat clean and drilled slightly into the stock. This is what I inserted.
The final product waiting to dry. I'll feel much better as I slam the conicals into this gun.
It cleaned up nice with a damp towel. While not a fancy job, I believe it will get the job done.
