No. VSSF barrels are heavy and 26 inches. the "L" in LVSF stands for 'Light"  and usually 22 inches IIRC. Some dude tried to sell me a VSSF barrel when I asked for a LVSF barrel.....it aint rocket surgery.

I have a LVSF for my boy and its in a Mcmillan stock. But I did but a LVSF stock and have it on another rifle in .308. I like it ok and they are a cheap alternative to the Remmy stocks without shelling $400 more for a McM stock. The LVSF stocks take some getting used to tho.

The LVSF take-off I have is a LOT stiffer in the forearm than every B&C sporter I've ever seen, as I'm assuming B&C made the LVSF. I don't know if it has more glass or if its the shape.

If you want a LVSF in .222 just buy a fluted Rem mag contour barrel Thats what I did to build my .22-250AI mine is a Douglas barrel and it even has the right twist 1:8 Drop it in a McMillan stock and you are rolling in high cotton ![[Linked Image]](http://s11.postimg.org/ejcwfeqv7/016.jpg) My 7-08 LVSF in McMillan stock with fluted bolt ![[Linked Image]](http://s22.postimg.org/wjw4359fl/img0918lw3.jpg)

So, how do you get your web paint to do what it did on that bottom stock?

If someone made an internal magazine that would feed a 223 AI with long seated 75 Amax's, I would be all set for a 2015 build.

Are you guys sanding the pressure point off your B&C LVSF stocks? Bedding? Anything else?
Trying to figure out if I should have it worked over or buy a McMillan.

Stop it! You guys are going to make me restock my new LVSF 7-08 with a McMillan.
When I die I hope I don't start voting democrat.
