When did you order it? I'm at five months and figure at least 3 more. I know what they are doing. The longer they take the more I order. If I had to pay up front for all of it I wouldn't order any but taking 8 months gives me enough time to pay the first one off and find another one and start paying on it.

The only problem is after receiving your Mcmillan, you may be really disappointed in your B&C stocks and need to order a bunch more Mcmillans! One thing to keep in mind is that every Swirly is different. Even if you send in a pic and say "Duplicate this", it may not turn out like you pictured. But that's ok, Swirlies are like snow flakes, each unique and cool in it's own way.

Yeah�I know you are right on both counts�but I am willing to risk buying more than one stock�.
I also know about the chances of duplicating a swirly�so I asked if they thought they could approximate the one in the photo�
We shall see�.

Sooo, to those of you who have tasted the kool-aid, whats the present realistic waiting time? From what I've seen, plan on 8 months. The only problem is after receiving your Mcmillan, you may be really disappointed in your B&C stocks and need to order a bunch more Mcmillans! May be? I was trying to be nice. Probably should read "will be".

Ha! Seriously though, I still like the TI stocks. One of the best deals out there in hunting stocks, especially for those who got in on the Numrich buy a couple years back.

Did you send them this picture? Yes. I did. Does that rifle have a 1 in 16 twist? That rifle was repossessed by the original owner after I put it in that uber stock. I have a weird feeling he's barrel shopping to turn it into something fancy. I like McMillans. My favorite pattern is the McMillan (Sako) Hunter. I prefer the swirly's with standard fill. I don't know why, but the painted stocks with Edge fill don't get me too excited. They're light and nice, but I just like the molded in colors better. Mistem on here has a nice looking flame on a Tikka. I stole his pic a while back!
I enjoy handguns and I really like shotguns,...but I love rifles!
