i recently acquired a very rough richard franklin undertaker bench stock in maple. after many hours of sanding and inletting and finishing and bedding. i decided to rope wrap and burnish with a torch to get the tiger maple look. i absolutely love how it turned out. and i believe it will also shoot. this is a custom 45 remington 700 with experimental barrel , timney trigger, murphy base and seekins rings and bushnell tactical elite scope.

Oh no ! Somebody is getting really serious ! I like the bench rest stock been thinking of the same thing for awhile. If it shoots as good as it looks it will be a real shooter! Looks great Jeff

I always liked Richard Franklin's Undertaker stocks.. It looks like it would ride the bags very well...

Looks to fancy to take hunting. I would be afraid of dinging it up.

Got to spend sometime over the labor day weekend with new blackhorn rifle working on a 550 yard target and trying every possible bullet and blackhorn load possible and cleaning between shots and shooting fouled barrel. After 75 rounds fired. The final load was my go to load at beginning of day. 270 emax and cleaning between shots and 105 gr by weight blackhorn. Would consistently shoot just under moa. So a friend stopped bye and he had a skoal can. I told him i could hit that can i 3 shots and was feeling very good about statement. Cold gun clean bore and 3 shots fired. ALMOST!! Group was 4.125" r
