[QUOTE="Elkeater, post: 3023249, member: 103670"] Is there anything special to consider when doing a semi custom on a weatherby vanguard action? I have a youth model in 7-08 that never sees the light of day mostly due to the fact that it isn’t threaded and I kinda don’t like shooting without a suppressor anymore. The barrel is a light sporter/maybe pencil profile so it’s not really big enough to thread. That means a re barrel so while I plan on keeping it 7-08 because I kinda like that cartridge. Only other round I may consider is .243 win. Anyway figured if I was gonna rebarrel it I might as well get rid of the plastic stock in favor of something nice and lightweight. Thinking overall a nice lightweight sporter stock with a 20” barrel. Figured I’d ask the brain trust for any advice before I start messing around. [/QUOTE]
