[QUOTE="Adam Moore, post: 1689653, member: 110920"] 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 [URL='https://www.24hourcampfire.com/catalog/index.php?cPath=22&osCsid=de97a7abdf7a4517545a08b3e499a8db']McMillan[/URL], 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. [/QUOTE]
