I have an 11 yo daughter that would like to try deer hunting next fall. I have a model 70 featherweight in 243 that I could work some loads up for but she is not very big and right now the stock is too long for her. It is a nice stock and I don’t want to cut it down and so am starting to look for an alternative.
I am looking at the Boyd offerings and see they have an stock that is adjustable for lop and comb called the All In One. It is certainly not the traditional look that I like but in this case I want to make sure what I put on for her is comfortable for her to get behind and shoot. Has anyone tried a stock like this for a young hunter? I know it would be heavy but we would be stand hunting and likely only shooting from rest.
Also is the featherweight barrel slimmer than a standard model 70? Wondering about the barrel channel fit.
If anybody has any thoughts I would appreciate it.
Thanks
NVM
