I did not like the factory stock on my Model 700 LVSF, as it just did not seem to "fit" me. However, the rifle is a tack driver, and I wanted to use it more than I was. I ordered a B&C Alaskan T1 stock from Stockys, and the stock fit the barrel contour of the rifle perfectly. It is a BDL model stock, which was what I wanted, so I had to add the bottom metal. The result is that my rifle shoots just as good as it did with the factory setup, and it looks better now.
