Posted By: SmokeEater2 Wood stock for a model 11? - 01/11/12
I have a left hand Savage model 11 in .223 that I dearly love..except for the cheesy plastic stock it came with.

I'm on the hunt for a wood stock to replace it and haven't had much luck so far. I was wondering if anyone could tell me if the model 110 or or other stocks would fit it?

If anyone happens to have a used one for sale please let me know.

It's not stupid , there are rifles made that way , built to a purpose.

Contact Savage and see if they will sell you a stock. They do have some very nice walnut as well as the birch. They may want to install it so it will be up to you if you want to ship back to them. Another possibility might be Midway since they have to old Fajen business up and running. Shoot them an E-mail.

Mike, what is the purpose of it?
Posted By: 6mm250 Re: Wood stock for a model 11? - 01/11/12
Joe , They are target/varmint guns , mostly single shot. When shooting from a position where the rifle itself is supported (bags or bipod) the shooter can reload with his off hand without disrupting the position of his shooting hand.

A similar (but not quite the same) scenario would be a left handed shooter in F-Class shooting a RH boltgun. The rifle is supported by a bipod & rear bag , the left hand maintains control of grip & trigger while the right hand operates the bolt & reloads
