I like the idea of a lot of "meat" forward of the recoil lug. Looks like a little more than Luke's modified sendero?

Yes Richard, #6 is a little heavier than the sendero profile, plenty heavy for a walk about gun..

Bill,
You're gonna start a fashion statement with that "blue tape" finish :-)
No doubt will be a good lightweight rifle

I hate to admit it, but I doubt it was a blue stock, I don't know Bill but I don't think he is a blue stock gent

Looks like you are getting it ready for the Challenge.... It will be a good rifle for the off hand shooting like we did last year...
