I would also invest in a "stock boot" to prevent the finish on your stock from getting messed up from cleaning solvents.


Fits over the rifle stock during cleaning of the barrel to prevent solvents from marring the finish. The quilt on the outside soaks up the solvent before it reaches the stock and holds it until it evaporates. The double thickness of vinyl on the inside stops any solvents from getting through. The basic colors are Red, Wine, Black, Blue, and Green. CAUTION, Do not leave this Stokboot on over night, there is a slight possibility that the solvents you are using could soak through the threads before evaporation and affect the stock.

** just looked on the I-net and these may have been discontinued by Sinclair, Brownell, Gammon, Midway, etc...

I'll do some calling around to see if I can find any for sale and who carries them now

[RShockley]

That’s a good idea as well. I haven’t seen them before. I’ll see if I have any luck finding some as well.

Sinclair has a different version in stock but it is the only I have been able to find so far.

I keep any of the small bubble wrap that I get when stuff gets shipped to the shop, wrap around the stock, overlap and secure it with a piece of tape and then cover that with a couple sheets of the blue shop rags/paper towels. But hey I'm a tightwad like that. Works well to absorb and not allow solvents/oils on the stock.

Took me a little bit to realize I had to resize my images.
Here are a couple pics of my new TBH special.
Hope to remember to post group pic's when I shoot it next week.

I changed out my medium ARC rings, to low ARC rings. Just FYI, if someone was wondering, a 50mm will clear with lows.

Very nice rifle and great choice on caliber. The 257 WBY is my favorite.
