I just ordered a nice pepper laminate stock for my Ruger American 22 mag. just wondering if anyone has done a centerfire yet. They are making stocks to fit the Regular American and the Predator. Nice way to spruce up a great value.

Looks like the RAR is a runaway success. Good news for those that like to tart their rifles up with aftermarket accessories.
I hope they chamber the Compact in 6.5 Creedmore, the ultimate pig / truck combo.

I bought one but haven't had time to install it yet. The Inletting does not clear the adjustment screw on the trigger, but other than that, the fit and quality are decent. They also are not kidding that the v-block pieces really need to be bed into place. I will install it next week and post pictures if nobody else beats me to the punch.

Looking forwrd to seeing the results. I have 4 Boyds stocks. Quality is consistant and I'm thinking this stock should rock.

I dont have the rifle (predator 6.5 cred) yet but have already ordered the stock and a steel ADL guard to run with it.
I like the boyds but cannot believe they charge an extra $10 to not finish the stock. I plan on taking off quite a bit to slim it up. I have dropped most of them to about 26-28 ounces.

Does the ADL trigger guard fit?
