The first gun with Turkish wood I had recheckered was done at 28 lines per inch because I could - the wood took it well. The checkering is too small for a good grip, but it sure is pretty! Now I stick to 24 lines per inch for most checkering. On simple field guns I go to 20 or 22 lip as it looks more appropriate for the grade of gun and provides excellent grip, as it is supposed to.
Regards,
Jeff
