Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Custom Rifles & Wildcats Wildcat Composite stocks

I wanted a synthetic stock on my Kimber 84M Varmint in 22-250. Kimber would not sell me a Montana stock, so I scouted around.

I measured the varmint stock and found that the Wildcat Model 7 stock was a close match in the dimensions.

A few months later, a gunsmith had ordered a blank Wildcat Model 7 stock and fitted it to my Kimber. I like it quite a bit.

For those with experience fitting these, how do you deal with smaller contour barrels (as it appears they have only one available contour)? Microballons and glass and fill or ... ? Thanks!

When you order, talk it over with Stuart.

My 338 Norma Magnum is using a barrel that follows the Remington Mangum contour, but is 60 thou oversize to allow for enough meat to put a muzzle brake on the end. Stuart was able to customise the channel to allow for this wider barrel.

If he can do that, he can certainly fill the channel in to allow for a thinner barrel.

Yes, I do exactly that. Microballoons and Marine Tex or Devon. Wrap the barrel with enough tape to get the gap you desire
