Still have to mount the Leupold Delta Pro, but the wrap is done and the new stock in installed. I would recommend the MO wrap but I would try it on test gun or get a second kit just in case you mess up a piece. It wasn't hard, took about 1-2 hours, but I would do a piece here and there before work some AM's. I would recommend thinking through it before making any cuts and if you heat it up and stretch it, to make sure it cools before trying to cut it. Warm makes rough edges. The vent rib area, I wish i would have cut up the sides and across the top then laid the extra down over the barrel. I slit it in the middle then had 4 pieces to try to get to stick good. Also I had enough left that I also covered the mag cap, bolt, weaver mount, & delta pro.

I had a few areas of miss cuts that I had to "Patch" back in. The Shur Shot butt stock was a little troubling as it was bigger then the precut pieces but I patched it together. My OCD didn't like it, so I contacted the manufacture and they suggested getting the auto dash piece that was bigger and gave me 10% off & free shipping to better cover the butt stock. worth the extra 13.00 for it. Can't decided if I like the black grip showing or covered up. I've got the forearm still covered up and thinking about cutting it out.

Looks awesome! That's how you build a good looking setup! I love the black on the grip piece as it matches the butt of the stock. I wouldn't change it but that's just my 02

Thanks! I've kicked back and forth about making the foreend match the buttstock but at the same time, I do like they way it looks.
