Ping pong balls for the win. Once you've wrestled everything else in life is easy. Dan Gable I keep my circle small, I’d rather have 4 quarters than 100 pennies.

I just ordered a Sako Hunter EDGE for my 6mm Howa, the fella on the phone said 4-6 months. Last one came in less than 2. No worries anyhow, it is nearly hunting season here.

they are expensive, but what is out there that's comparable to them for less money? If you have a Remington 700 footprint, there is AG Composites and Grayboe.
If you died tomorrow, what would you have done today ...

Neither of those companies offer the styles colors or different fill weights that McMillan does. If they do offer something that works for your particular build then you’re correct that is another option.

I ordered one when they ran a sale and had it in under a month. I know you can get the outlander in different fill weights, colors, and inlets. They had no problem painting it in a color combo that wasn't on the website. If you aren't in a hurry and can wait until they run a sale, it's a nice stock for the money. I wouldn't pay normal custom shop prices. FWIW, they reduced the weight on them. The one I got in standard weight was 29ounces.

Men, not to brag but pretty excited. Ordered a Winchester Sako hunter for a Pre -64 Model 70 on September 14, 2020, just got the UPS ship notification that it will be here Western MD on Friday. Very Impressed, my last one took 6 months but was well worth the wait.

I got one in a little over a month. Ordered in late August and got it last week. Game warden edge no paint. I was shocked to get the shipping notice. I planned on 4 months or better

Placed an order through Rick in mid July and still waiting. But I'm guessing a left handed Tikka isn't their normal off the shelf stock.

Rick called me Wednesday and said mine is done. I was pleasantly surprised that it only took 3 months. I was fully expecting at least 6 months.

They recently did a warranty replacement for me in less than a month.
Too close for irons, switching to scope...

I ordered the end of June. Nothing yet but a model seven and vanguard probably aren’t the most common ones ordered either.

I was recently told the wait time is 3-4 months but I think it varies depending on the stock ordered.

Mcmillian needs to raise prices again. It will solve the wait time issue.
