Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Winchester Collectors Pre 64 Model 70 .338 Alaskan - fiberglass stock

I sold this rifle with the original Winchester stock. Had a custom fiberglass stock made for this rifle for a trip to Alaska... the stock was made by Mark Phipps of Garrett Acrulight in Colorada. Fella I sold the rifle wanted everything original and did not want this fiberglass stock. It is in excellent condition - would rate it a "9", nice grey color. Would there be any purchase interest on this forum? I can't seem to get photos posted here but would text or email photos if requested.

Thanks for looking.

Hard to gauge interest in something for sale when no price is mentioned.

Pictures would be a huge plus if you can figure out how to load them.

Level of interest here depends almost entirely on posting pics and price, without those interest usually is very limited.

I have the same rifle and would be interested. Please pm me.

Weight of the stock would be excellent as well.

Scotty have you ever heard of this companies stock before? I ageee, pics are damn near required, as is the length, type of recoil pad, WEIGHT, etc. etc

No, I sure haven’t.

I had a faint memory of the name but don't recall any details about them.
There was a previous question about them on the Fire back in 2009, which was asking if they were still in business.

Was the company that made this stock for me. Found the original invoice in my files dated 8-4-88. I sent them my rifle and had a "classic style stock" fiberglass kevlar reinforced made for my hunt in Alaska in 1989. Specs on the stock per the invoice were:

- 13 3/4 LOP
- Decelerator recoil pad
- Brown wrinkle finish
- English style cheek piece
- Palm swell "right'

In July 1989 my wife and I took our camper and drove to Alaska for my 21 hunt with Master Guide George Palmer. We drove up on the Cassier Hwy. and returned in mid-September on the Alaskan Hwy. On this trip, I got my best Dall Sheep ram, a 1 1/4 curl, 58" moose and a nice caribou. Got home mid-October and hunted deer in California, Colorado, Idaho, Wyoming and AZ Kaibab unit 12A West late season...a year I will never forget!

If one of you will post photos of the stock for me, I will email the photos to you and a copy of my receipt from Garrett...I tried and I just can't get them posted here.

That's great info right there. Exactly what is needed to help you sell it. I'm out, since it has a right hand palm swell... Sounds like a nice one though.. Do you happen to have a weight in ounces? That would be some good info as well. Good luck with your sale..

A friend has a scale certified for commercial use and I am getting it weighed tomorrow...will post tomorrow evening.

Thanks for looking.

Just weighed the stock and with sling studs and Decelerator recoil pad, it weighs 26 oz. (1lb. 10 oz.).

Sounds spot on for the same weight as an EDGE fill Legend.

Sounds like a nice stock and an even better adventure that fall of ‘89 ... will look forward to pictures.
