Fix scratch in synthetic Remington stock
« on: April 11, 2012, 02:51:01 PM »
Was wondering of a way to blend in a scratch in a Remington 700 stock?

Why worry about it on a synthetic stock?  Personally I don't really worry about getting a synthetic gun beat up a little bit.  It's what they're there for...
 
But if it's a really bad one and deep, and if it really bothers you, cut off any excess that might be sticking up with a razor blade.  Fill it in with some epoxy, sand it down even and then rattle can the stock. 
 
All will be healed.

I concur,
Isn't that what synthetic stocks are for? I replaced the nice wood on my Savage with a Ramline so I wouldn't be afraid to scratch something. Date the scar with a Sharpie so you'll remember the great day that led to the ding.
