But light!

There is no way a person can say the same things and take the same pictures over and over 1,000 times. But the fruits of the spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness,faithfulness, Gentleness and self control. Against such things there is no law. Galations 5: 22&23

Al_Nyhus Campfire Tracker Joined: Jan 2003 Posts: 3,463 Likes: 13 Lower Dakota Territory	Originally Posted by mikestaten Would prefer to have pillars preinstalled. Pre-installed pillars are one of those things that make you feel warm and fuzzy....but the realities of them are much different. I've replaced loose/tipped ones in every brand of stock including all of them named so far. And more. They all get replaced here. The aluminum bedding blocks are another poor choice. But slightly better than 'molded in' pillars. It's too bad that more of the current stock makers don't offer the ADL option to their lineup. Good shootin' -Al Forbidden Zoner

Preferably with a rounded bottom where the floor plate would be as in the Rem 700 KS stocks. I've used the B&C 2951 series 'Ti' stocks before with good results. They have a short front 'block' for the action screw and a molded in 1/2" dia. rear pillar. I replace the rear with a .625 pillar which helps quite a bit. They have a front pressure pad which comes out. The fore ends get reinforced a bit to stiffen things up. Not my idea of the perfect stock but with a bit of work, they make up pretty nicely and are available without a half year wait. There's one on the way for a 284W project.

Where are you finding the ultralights? Thought they stopped making them. I’d grab a couple … If I knew they'd arrive at that weight I would be all over them. My experience hasn't matched up with that...but I wish it had! It's not a "classic" look, but I'm loving a GB Trekker I started using last year. Hi comb, vertical grip, generic barrel channel, and light. I need to throw a little bedding on the lug, but so far it's been stacking rounds through 2 different barrels/cartridges naked of bedding. Not sure if they'll make one ADL though..... If you don't mind picking up bdl stuff and don't mind a couple of minutes on a dremel, the following would be worth looking at: https://www.24hourcampfire.com/ubbt...-hunter-remington-700-stock#Post17960949
