Aftermarket Stock

[rustyshackleford]

I'm looking around at some of the local gunsmiths for a super cheap factory wood stock that can be bedded and pillared. If I can't find one of them, then I'll probably end up getting a greyboe or something in that price range. I never realized how many options there truly were out there. I've always just kinda floated the barrel in factory wood and killed lots of stuff. Lol

I just remembered McMillan has the new MC3 line too. Have you checked into that?

You will find Hogue flexes just as bad or worse, I have one on a 700 in Stw shoots good but touches using a bipod or shooting from odd positions would not advise.

Looking for opinions on aftermarket stocks for a remington 700. I just had a long action rebarreled to a 6.5-284 and was planning to use the factory SPS stock. the barrel contour was supposed to match the factory one but it came back a little larger (which is fine) and wouldn't fit the channel in that stock. I sanded a little bit out of the channel to allow it to fit and free float, but now when the weight of the rifle is on the forearm, the stock flexes and touches the barrel.

I would like to replace that stock with one that will be better and allow for free floating and using a rest without diminishing accuracy.

I know thee are several options out there and im sure everyone here will yell McMillan, but I really cant afford to drop 500+ on a stock right now. What are opinions on the hogue overmolded? Magpul hunter 700? and maybe others I dont know about.

Take a look at Grey Boe

I really like HS Precision stocks. I have them on several of my rifles. Most of mine i picked up second hand on different forums. This a sporter model.

Also look at KRG...the Bravo stock probably sells for

You look at KRG as well. The Bravo model probably retails for around 300-350 U.S.

Bell and Carlson or Grayboe would be nice.

I put a Stocky stock on my 700 .308 varmint and tightened group by .5. They make their own and carry other mfgs.

McMillan MC3 is a composite version, pretty nice stock, not a lot of money. Grayboe is another one that would be in the running. HS Precision has quite a few option in the sub 400 range. Check RedHawkRifles.com or StockysStocks.com you should be able to find something on there. Good luck

Bell and Carlson make some nice lightweight stocks that are affordable and tough. You can pay a lot more for other brands, but for the money they are hard to beat. I have McMillan stocks two guns and like the bell and Carlson just a much.
