Building up a 10/22 receiver. Black receiver with a blued Green Mountain barrel. Choice between Nutmeg and Charcoal laminate. Keep going back and forth betwixt the two.

+1 Charcoal

I just ordered a Boyd's thumbhole blaster stock in peppered, similar color.

I have that same barrel sitting in a corner collecting dust.
Put a tactical solutions barrel on it and absolutely love it.

I vote for charcoal as well

The Nutmeg would match my Model 77 MKII I think.



I plan on making a kydex comb riser and I think the black kydex and black/blued action might looks really good together.

They are only $29 - 10% each maybe I should just get bofum. Shipping is the same on one or two.

All about the contrast. If you had a stainless or brushed bbl, I'd go with the other one.

Nutmeg, unless you are planning on urban warfare and want your gun to match the concrete.

You can see a couple of little blemishes if you look close but this is a damned nice stock for $29 + shipping. Now I just need my new Weaver scope and a thread protector that actually fits to get here next week. Since it's pre-dings up I don't have to treat it like a baby when I take it into the woods

Are you going to drill into that stock? I started to go the kydex route but ended up using vet wrap and foam.

Yep! Though I might test to see if VHB will hold it.

I have the same stock on my 10-22 with a .920 Stainless barrel and it looks good.

I vote for the Charcoal, OP.
