Your rifle of course, but having seen a couple of synthetic-stocked No.1s, I think i'd rather chop off my winky.

Understood, it's not as pretty as walnut, but they are light and this is for a project on an action and it's what I want/need right now. Any helpful comments other than chopping off body parts ??

Midway shows them in stock I tried each color, all say discontinued and when I try to add any of them to cart I get a nice apology from them that they aren't in stock...

That's like putting a set of mag wheels on a wire a wheeled XKE Jag or maybe throwing a pass with 3 downs to go from the 2 yard line. What are you thinking?

It's a beater #3 action that I'm rebarreling and building a lightweight mountain rifle, hence the synthetic stock, lightweight and weather proof...

Not B&C and not cheap, but is synthetic.

That's the same color as the Kevlar B&C on my Knight. Kinda grows on you.
I think the synthetic No.1 stocks I saw before were Lee Six's. Kinda clubby.

Just read the reviews on the Midway site. Doesn't sound like a stock I would want to purchase.

Well, each to his own. While I understand wanting a really light rifle that absorbs recoil well it just seems wrong to do it to a No. 1 or No.3 action.
What is the weight difference between the B&C you want and a walnut stock with a slim forearm and drilled out butt stock?

Apparently, you've got a bag case of Rugeritis.
