Savage long action

[George Dean]

Another vote for the Oryx. This is my .257 WBTY on a Savage 110 LA.

Pornographic photos raise my lust factor. I may have to stray from MDT. Hot, hot, hot!

XLR Magnesium and you will be better off!

Boyd's can build you almost anything you want. I use several of their stocks.
Best bet is to handle as many stocks as possible to see which grip works best for you.

This is about the slickest thing out there as of now

I'm doing two Boyd's ultralights until I can afford the MDT

HNT26 Chassis System

The first purpose-built hunting chassis from MDT. Weighing in starting at 26oz (for chassis stock, buttstock, forend and pistol grip combined), this is the most ultra-light hunting rifle chassis on the market.

One savage 110 long action in MDT LSS XL
One savage 112 long action in Choate Ultimate Varmint (have the save stock on my Savage Short action 12 BVSS IN 223).

Mdt is what I ran on my savages. Haven't looked to confirm savage pattern but I switched to xlr element 4.0 and super happy. It's on my bighorn.

Which did you like better ? Or rather, what made you switch?

Look at Woox Stocks wood ansd aluminum combined.

Stock grip "feel" is a very individualized sense, so try as many as possible.
The rifle does not have to be exactly the same as your rig; your just checking the stock fit in all the gripping areas.
That includes the front of the mag well area if you use that area.
Do to issues with my trigger hand and wrist, I have been working on some laminated thumbhole stocks.
Some have needed a rasp and sanding in the grip area for the best fit.
Just my 2 cent observations.
Full opinions cost more...

MDT has some very well thought out chassis. I modified the heck out of my last one to get the weight down but ultimately went with the XLR due to the weight and features for the weight. Overall the XLR is better for my desires in this set up. For a comp rifle I'd likely rock the MDT. Both have pro's and cons, but are really very good products IMHO.

The MDT HDT26 is the only stock that appealed to me in the MDT line

Do not take my advice/idea, but I was having the exact same issue with a cheap Savage stock on a 12fv so I took a tube of water weld and form fitted my hand onto the grip. I like that it fills the palm of my hand. It's been on there for 3 years and around 400 rounds.

DIY - love it!
