I’ve only ordered 3.
First took 4 or 5 months.
Second and third were ordered and then cancelled when I found what I wanted, used, while waiting.
After you order you have about half a year to look for what you want. As long as you don’t have your heart set on a certain bowling ball pattern, or other oddity, chances are good you’ll find it and save a couple hundred bucks.

I too ordered one end of May 2017. Still haven't received it. Called them 7 weeks ago and they told me 3 weeks... Called them last week (6 weeks after first call) and they told me 2 to 3 weeks again... Told them I've heard that before... 6 weeks ago...

I only go the Mac route if it’s going to be as important to me as the barrel I ordered for a build. If not, then there are other options with quicker delivery. I’m liking Greyboe at the moment. But, I wouldn’t hesitate to put an order in for a Mac knowing i won’t be seeing it until October...I tend to keep my builds with Mac stock as a forever rifle...So, waiting doesn’t bother me. 😎

I wait just long enough to find a used one that someone wants to sell at a loss... Major loss most times.

I've ordered 4 or 5 and bought 4 or 5 others off the specials list. They've all worked great and ordering one with specific bottom metal in mind, shank length and barrel contour in mind and long LOP for my stature has always been very good for me. I don't really worry too much about leadtime though as I've a few things to hold me over.

I ordered two stocks from McMillan on Jan 31, 2018 and the first one arrived April 18, 2018.
So 2.5 months for the first one.
Second one, not here yet.

Ordered 1 in Feb for a M98, took about 8 months. Ordered another end of Dec, we'll see how long it takes. At least you know going in there will be a wait. I keep a spare "beater"(Butler Creek) stock in case I would NEED to use a barreled action before the stock was finished(so far have not needed to use it).
Funny how it doesn't seem like as big a deal once you have it in your hands. Well my rifle is at McMillan for fitting, should be on pace for 6 moths or so...about what I was quoted. I keep saying this will be the last one...did I mention that they do a REALLY nice M98 stock.
