Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunting Rifles Has anyone tried a boyd's JRS Stock?

I think that the JRS stocks for commercial actions are closer than those for Mauser military actions. Since Mauser military actions were made by a large number of companies, over a long period of time, there is some variation and the Boyd stocks are inletted to the Boyd sample action. For example, I have a Howa 1500 that was fitted with a minimum of fuss. But, I also have a Swedish Mauser, Husqvarna 1942, that required a lot of work. Also, JRS laminated stocks are heavy.



For Remington 7s and 700s, I perfer the factory laminated stocks, particularly since they are common and usually cost less on ebay than a finished JRS. Of course, you can only get them in "nutmeg" and "pepper" colors, but brown or green laminates are probably their biggest sellers.
