What is a "Semi-Inlet" Stock?

[tkv000]

I am acquiring a Stainless Ruger #1, 375 H&H and while I love the stainless, I'm not so sure I like the looks of the laminate. Ruger doesn't offer wood with the stainless or sell the wood stocks afterwords. So I hopped onto google looking for a wood replacement (Preferably with a cheek piece) And I came across some for sale on ebay (Item number 380074037472 if your interested in checking it out). Anyway, the stocks are advertised as "Semi-Inlet" I assume that means it needs final fitting? Is that something an average joe like myself can do at home? or are we talking precise dremeling, wood chisels, and routers?

Thanks.

Semi-inlet generally means that the basic shape and inletting is done, final fitting and finish has still got to be completed to the appropriate firearm.
How this is done depends on your skill as a wood worker. Dremels are a scary machine to use, sandpaper and riffling files are your better option.
Look up the term lamp-blackening on the www, it helps when fitting parts together.
