baldie Posted March 3, 2015 Report Share Posted March 3, 2015 Here you go Gary. Mr Chop rocks up at the shop with a rifle I built for him some time back, and an old Wild dog stock, which I had a sneaking suspicion , came through my hands years ago. Brief was to fit a floor plate, bed it in, then fully bed the barrelled action into the scabby old wilddog. A generous coat of Duracoat in several colours later.

baldie Posted March 3, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 3, 2015 No more than anything else. They are always warped however, due to the inletting being moulded in in. Its a poor method, but machining it all out, squaring everything up and proper bedding sorts them out. A very nice stock with a bit of work. Don't know if the company is still going though.

Akeld Posted March 3, 2015 Report Share Posted March 3, 2015 What happened to wild dog stocks, everyone was raving about them a few years back then dropped off the map, The web page has been under construction for years now http://www.wilddog.com.au/ Shame as that stock looks a belter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baldie Posted March 3, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 3, 2015 I remember Roger at syss putting in an order for 100 stocks. A year later, nothing had arrived so he finally managed to get hold of the company. It had changed hands and the new owners were not interested in the order.
