Choose any 2 or 3 of the molded in colors to create a unique swirled marble pattern finish for your custom stock. Literally thousands of different patterns can be created, including any you see in this catalog or on our website. No two stocks are ever made alike. And here is the camo chart for those of you who want a molded-in camo finish: Rick

Don't need no pics, need recipe. 50% tan, 25% Olive, 35% black as I recall. Or is that another rifle?

Since you asked so nicely, seems to me the bomber is 50 olive, 25/25 Black/tan.
Mine is 50 Dark gray, 25/25 Black/tan...

Steelhead ... you can lay claim to whatever you want concerning "da bomber" ... I was just trying to help the guy out with the "recipe" he asked for ...
Having said that, I'd to your recipe WAY before the other ... I just can't like gray as the base color for a stock ... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

This thread would be a good place to dump replies and just post pics of different Mcswirly's and their color percentages.

That's the one I was wanting... I got to file that away for the next project.

I currently own 7 Mcmillan swirled pattern stocks and I think they are the only way to go in a custom stock!

Here's my 6.5-06. It's a Remington Classic style and the recipe is 60% Burgundy, 20% Dark Grey and 20% White. Mickey Coleman put it together.

I get enough queries about this color scheme to warrant posting it. When I ordered it through Mike Bryant, I specified 80% dark red, 20% black. After discussing it with Rick Bin and looking at the color chart, I think McMillan used Burgandy where I requested a dark red, since they technically don't have a "dark red." In any case, I was extremely pleased with how it came out. This one is SharpShooter's Nesika 6.5-06 put together by Charley Robertson of Score High Gunsmithing out of Albuquerque. Charley does extremely good work. I once shot a group with this rifle that measured .137" with 129gr Hornady Interlocks. Anyway, back to the colors. SS said it's a 50/50 red/black. This is the scheme I'm going with on my next project. John
