I don't do browning, so I wouldn't have thought of that.

Did you get that stock from a certain Pennsylvania barrel maker?  I have a piece of walnut from Michicam via Pennsylvania with similar coloring.  Spectacular piece you have there.

Nope!  Coincidental I presume!  Nice walnut and that is main reason I didn't use a filler; but will take a bunch of rubbingson with the ol tyme boil linseed oil.  Have abt 10 applications since photo session...!  I'm in no rush ;D
