	I know what you mean, there are some similarities around the trigger. I am making it for my HW95 but was copying my 97 stock and thinking of adding some 98 into it. A Weirauch hybrid. That's gonna look great with the grain. It will be an individual piece. Note i'm talking about bretts stock looking great, not blowing my own horn. I just re read it.

	Everyone is different if they're handmade. I see a lot of differences between them just at a glance. The one I'm doing is longer, with a mix of FWB and AA in the rear, plus the pistol grip angle and thumb slot, just to name a few. It's good to see people having a go rather than forking out the ridiculous dollars to import a bit of wood

	Long time no updates here , sick kids taking priority. Fitted one of nungas adjustable butt hooks to it now , and have to say they're very race gun! A lot of adjustment, easy to fit and set up, one size Allen key for everything, and way below the cost of anything like it on the market. Top work nunga, , it's made this stock fit me so much better - now I just need to sort this damn shoulder out :) Here it is fitted, gotta have gun porn :)

	So I have pretty much finished the stock for my 95 and so I thought I would pull it apart today to have a look as I am going to drop it in power from about 890 to 750 fps. It will be my dedicated "sparrow gun" for the supermarkets. When I took the spring out, it came out in 4 pieces!! The small bits had been wound into the ends so it had the effect of giving it a short powerful stroke..... i'm guessing. Either that or it plain broke and has been firing ok anyway. Shot cycle had always been nice and smooth, no rattles, just a nice thuick! (not sure how you spell that). Put it back together with just the main spring and it fired nicely at around 615 fps. I will either put some spacers on the top hat, wind one section of spring back in or buy a new spring to bring it up to the 750 fps mark. Has anyone heard of the "inter-twined spring technique before"?

	Looks broken to me, the two pieces that would be the ends are closed/flat to mate against their respective surfaces squarely, I'd try closing the mainspring ends to be flat, and putting a spacer at each end, with larger spacer(s) at the piston end. Interesting that it still fired well though 😃

	I know, that's why I thought it was deliberate. I can see in theory that it would Work ok, just not best practice. I have smoothed off spring ends and will put washers in soon. Pic of stock with action too come.

	Dont use spacers with that broken spring, it is broken to much and is too short now. You will find the coils will compress together and you wont be able to cock the gun by the time you space it up enough to get your FPS up. Also I think your High power gun has a heavier piston than the 12foot model so if you are planning to reduce the power you will need to replace the piston as well as the spring or you might run into problems. Brett, remember Glenn's problems with his gun siting in my workshop. He is using cut-down springs and spacers to get 12 foot pounds and look what he ended up using at the worlds.
