Stocky’s Hunter VG Tikka stock

How many layers of epoxy do you have on there at this point? Just one? I want to do something like this with my Alterra.

Unfortunately I tried that spray on truck bed liner and did not love it. I whish I had not done that as I put a couple of heavy coats. That marine Tex is just one thin layer. I used the popsicle stick to raise it to peaks after I spread it on, then waited an hour or so and used a wet nitrile glove to tap the peaks down so I could avoid sanding it. It feels very good. Plus, the marine Tex color is nice. I will still probably sponge paint the stock a little.

I mean the plumbers putty stuff that you used to build up the majority of the angle.

Oh! Yeah I made up three pieces. I also wanted to increase the palm swell. That plumbers stuff comes in a long roll that’s about 3/4” in diameter. Each piece I cut off the roll was about 1”.

That's pretty slick, and it seems to adhere well to the carbon or other epoxy?

Good looking job. Looks very professional!

Yes it all adheres perfectly.

It seems to shoot very well without any bedding. So far, I’m pretty happy with this set up after one Range session this morning. This target is 25 shots.

Quick sponge paint job.
