Turned out pretty nice considering the hard receiver. It was purple when I started. I imagine it will fade to deep purple over time. In the old days they would blue purple and get no darker. With modern salts and the fact that I shocked it several times, this one almost matches the barrel. the original owner re-barreled it in 300 Win. mag.
There is also an additional floor plate from a Weatherby. What looks like streaks are actually reflections of my florescent lights. It took a few minutes to figure that out...

Looks nice. I'd love to see a pic of the whole rifle when it's back together . . . .
