For future reference, who else besides Knob MT/Dave Keck does stock shaping/barrell & RR inletting?

Don't know about stock shaping, but Dave Rase does awesome barrel inletting including ramrod holes.  Or he used to anyway.

Try Pecatonica River Longrifle Supply, or TVM, or Ott@gunstocksplus.com.  Pecatonica has done work for me in the past and are reasonable and fairly quick.  A buddy of mine just had TVM carve and inlet a stock for him.  It was nigh on to being complete when he got it.

Mark Wheland does excellent barrel inletting and ramrod channels including the hole.  I do not know about shaping, but once the barrel and ramrod channel are in it is far better to shape it to match your parts and style choice.

Thanks, I'll make a note for future projects, at least getting the bbl and rr inlet really speeds things up.
