Just wondering if anyone has any pictures of this stock and how do you like it?

Thanks,

I don't have any pictures, but I like that pattern much. It has a short forend, so it looks better with shorter barrels.

Thanks,


I've got a couple of them and think the pattern is great for a short barreled varmint gun. The stubby forend will look funky with barrels longer than 24". The ergos are quite good, with a small palmswell and good comb height.

Top one is 60%black, 20% medium gray, 20% dark gray. Bottom one is 60% dark tan and 40% white.

FWIW, the black/gray is a 21" heavy palma contour and the tan is a 23" factory varmint.

They look really good...mine will be going on a Rem700 LVSF and they have a 22" barrel. I am just really struggling between this and classic style for it.

For an LVSF, I'd be going Classic. The Rem Varmint is a great stock, but way too beefy for a factory mag sporter contour. Tough to top a Classic or Sako Classic for that role.

Do they make the Sako Classic for a Remington 700?

Yep. Sako Hunter too, although the newer Tikka pattern is very similar and supposedly a bit easier to use for a 700. I've had two Sako Classics, one being for a 700 and the other for a Vanguard. They work well for me.
