I struggled with that too. Let's settle on "auburn".

I'd have to say those are my favorite but it is close. With a variety of M13s, it was simple to have those with the cocobolas.
For my M19, I chose the target stocks but really struggled in the decision for the type of wood. I settled on the dark reddish cocobolas. They look great on that gun but if I get another M19 I can get the fiddleback maples for that as well.

Who made the Cocobolo Targets? I think I need a set of those.
Nice gathering of three-inchers! I have been hooked since long before the prices went totally insane, and have several.
