Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Custom Rifles & Wildcats McMillan wait times

Seems like most of my turns are 3-5 months. I've been on a streak of just perfectly done orders by McMillan on probably the last 8 or so. Shank length, barrel inlet, bottom metal inlet, lop, etc has all been perfect on them. Quite happy with McMillan and never sweat the wait times.

Got a call Friday my stock is done.

3 months.

3 months is about right currently, they are certainly worth it .

At least two in my case. I bought a lesser stock, because I couldn’t (wouldn’t) wait six months. And I have about 10 mcmillans.

My last stock took 5 months. The one I have on order now is 7.5 months and still counting

That three months would be nice but I'm not holding my breath. I ordered 5/7/19.

I ordered 4 stocks back in mid April. Got two of them around the 8-9 week mark. The last two arrived last week for about a 3 month delivery. They are still stating the long lead time, but seem to be building them much faster.

Yep, same here.
I once ordered a McMillan and at the same time ordered another popular brand. Not only did I receive the McMillan in 3 months (while waiting patiently for the other company), I ordered another McMillan, received the McMillan, then ordered yet another McMillan and received THAT one before the other company's stock finally showed up - and the much anticipated stock arrived with the wrong inlet.

If I need something sooner than six months, it was likely a frivolous, half-baked plan from the get-go.

Just got this one in. Kind of like it. First Game Scout I have ordered.

Decided not to bed the McMillan till I could see how it shot. Grabbed a few rounds and thinking it won't need bedding. Moved it two clicks down and called it good.

Its because of stuff like this that I love working with McMillan stocks.

Appears you're squared away sans bedding.

Good looking stock too.
McM Carbon Ambush color/camo offering? If I were ordering a stock tomorrow, that's what I'd choose.

Yep, Game Scout with carbon ambush. This one feels pretty good. Recoil impulse for a 6.5x47 suppressed is kind of fun too.

Ordered my Game Warden for a Tikka T3 (edge fill) on June 7th, confirmed on June 21st. Delivered on August 27th.

I was expecting the stock to be the long lead item on this build. Turns out it is the rebarrel. I am expecting my BA back around mid-month.

Does mcmillan send an email with a tracking number when the stock ships? Just curious bc i ordered my first one a while back and just saw this morning that they charged me for it and i think that means they shipped it

Nevermind i did receive one. That was fast, i ordered the stock April 16 and it shipped today, less than 2 months!

Holy shiit that was fast!!

Yesterday, they told me 4-6 months on a 700 classic

Ordered a Win Featherweight for a pre64 on 30 April and got shipping confirmation on Wednesday.

By far a new record for flash to bang...

That is smokin’ fast. Maybe covid and a price hike are shortening the wait list.

Was that a featherweight pattern inlet for pre-64? What fill?

Congrats! 🍀

Let me know how the fit is on that one, particularly the trigger guard.

Thanks
