Picked up a short action Aero Solus over the holidays and I'm not particularly a chassis fan but more of a traditional hunting stock guy. Want to make sure Im not overlooking my options. I know it's a supposed Remington footprint, but what stocks have you actually used with good fit and success ?
Thanks all
 
Manners inlets for Aero, I ordered a PH with the Proof Sendero Lite contour for a stubby build

I also think MPI will inlet for the Aero, but a 15-18oz stock on that pig would be ridiculous.

Edit, I tried it in two different stocks, the hanger area would need to be relieved to seat.

I also bought a barreled action 6.5 PRC, since i had a Grayboe Renegade laying around i decided to mod it to fit but i got fraustrated and took it to my smith, however so far as i know, the following stock makers make regular (not chassis) stock with inlet for the Solus action.
-Grayboe
-AG composite
-Manners
Please post what you end up with.
 
I'm following this. My barrel (26", 1" Varmint contour, 6 twist, chambered 8.6 BLK) is not here yet and the Solus action is waiting patiently. I got a heads up from Preferred Barrel Blanks that it's "nearing completion" on 9/6. It'll be interesting to see how a short action .338 does :)

:/ Grayboe won't accommodate the 1" Varmint contour.

I really like the two Boyd's stocks I have. One is on a Rem 783 (.308) and one will be on a Ruger American Varmint in .300 BLK (new 5 twist barrel).

I ended up with a Grayboe Terrain and love the stock. Heavy sporter barrel on the Aero and there's plenty of room for a heavy contour if I wanted to move up.
 
Grayboe Terrain
I'm looking for something with adjustable length of pull and a adjustable cheek piece. It doesn't matter, Grayboe says:

"Fits all barrels up to and including the Proof Research Sendero contour"

My Proof barrel is a 1" Varmint and I think that's a bit heavier than the Sendero contour.
