Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Custom Rifles & Wildcats Rifle stock question

Thanks this is good info. I assume that far right plastic stock is an SPS stock?

I think Edge-fill classic is where I want to be.

I have an Edge with a Win M-70 24" Sporter BA in it but I don't know how that contour compares to a Shilen #3.

But McM says that stock will take a Douglas #3, so you could look up that contour on their website & compare it.

A 22" barrel will definitely balance that stock a little better than does my 24" but you will still have the weight firmly in your left hand if you like that.

Mine is an older stock with a half inch Decelerator pad & it weighs 21 oz, but the newer ones might be heavier, especially with a 1" pad.

Rather than Classic, I like the Remington Sporter better & the Sako Classic even better yet if they will inlet for a Rem 700..........McM of today is not the McM of the past.

Actually, other than the grip being a little thicker than I really like the lines & feel of the B&C Mountain stocks for a lot less money, are very good but not sure how big a barrel those will take as mine have MR contours but I'm pretty sure it could be made to fit a #3 with a little careful work.

As for paint being tough, McM is very tough & B&C is tough enough.

You also might want to look at AG Composites as they are making some great stocks like the Bergara Premier Mountain 2.0.

If you want any pics, let me know.

It is, can't recall why I included that but think someone asked in a prior thread to show the difference.
