Corey - Yuk! How can you even consider taking that thing out hunting. Just take it apart and put it in a shipping box and mail it to me. I'll make sure no one else sees it in my safe.
Really - good job. Now get out there and get that thing shootin straight.

Wow, you did a great job on that. I remember the "before"pictures you posted. The stock looks much better.

Now its time to take it hunting and get it all dinged up
