I've just heard a lot of folks that seem to like that stock but I wondered if there was any reason other than aesthetics... Aesthetics? Not in that stock.

I will trade anybody straight up for a boat paddle stock that fits my 280. I have the later version of the MK II synthetic which I do not like. I have killed a bunch of critters with it however.

I have a 260 in that configuration. I do not see what people like about the stock either. Am awaiting the day when I find an available SA Ruger laminate to replace it with.
I am almost convinced that I will have to buy a stainless/laminate 243 for the stock and then give the 243 away with the boat paddle attached. Have TWO of the same rifle...both wear Boyd's Laminates.. currently $92.00 plus delivery..one gray and one brown.. so I could quit having to swap the stocks off of my Ruger Stainless Laminate 243s all the time..

I like them. They are very accurate rifles based on the three that I own in 223,243 and 7mm RM. Anyone that would be interested in selling a ss 77/22 in the boat paddle or 260, please PM me.

I agree - mine are accurate as well. Ruger MKII .338 Win Mag and Ruger #1 in .280 Rem. ![[Linked Image]](http://www.hunt101.com/data/500/338WM_and_280Rem-5.JPG) Ruger MKII in .300WM (top) and .30-06 (bottom): ![[Linked Image]](http://www.hunt101.com/data/500/IMG_1161.JPG) Scope check target from the .338 Win Mag: ![[Linked Image]](http://www.hunt101.com/data/500/medium/IMG_03847.JPG) And one from the .300 Win Mag (1st shot from a clean/oiled bore): ![[Linked Image]](http://www.hunt101.com/data/500/medium/8115300Win_180TSX.jpg)

No, I'm not a Ruger bigot - just an unabashed fan of their revolvers, M77's and #1's.
A good .30-06 is a 99% solution.
