12brd, Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, please don't shoot the messenger!
Hope you never drop those Shilos, the feather is coming from the wrong direction and either one could snap like a tooth pick. Especially teh upper stock with a heavy barrel.
Feather crotch is beautiful, but only with good wrist grain and that almost only comes with the feather running from comb nose towards the toe. Doug's blank has about perfect layout for a straight grip.
