Yeah, I'd love to run across a good deal on a hunters compact like what I've had in the past. One of my favorite set-ups was my 270 fwt in the mcmillan with red pachmayr. You guys remember that one:

I always said if I were a 270 fan, I would have kept that rifle, because it was one of the best 270's I've ever seen.. It was set up right. I will eventually do that with this 30-06 or just hunt the heck out of it in this stock, because it's not worth much as it is. I like gundoc's suggestions on reshaping things, especially the pistol grip, but don't want to put too much time into this stock. Down the road, if the right mcmillan comes along, I can probably sell this wood stock on ebay for $150.00..... Thanks for the suggestions guys. I'm still a model 70 nut through and through, even though I've been playing around with my savage's and Tikka's and AR's....
