I was on leather worker.net looking for a rifle butt cover tutorial or how-to and didn't find anything there. I did a quick search on google and got nothing good either. Anyone know of a tutorial out there? Thanks.

Hi Frank,

I saw your question over on Leatherworker.net as well, but I was hoping someone else would speak up, since I don't really have anything useful for you. Someone over there did make one and give a vague description of how, but I couldn't find it.

My suggestion would be to make a paper pattern--tape paper around the butt and draw the lines to cut on, then cut it out. To cover the end of the butt, you would just need to trace around it on paper and add the thickness of the leather you are using so you can stitch it to the wrap, if that makes any sense?

Thanks Noah, A step by step would have saved me some time. I understand what you are describing and will give it a shot either way. Thanks again.
