-recommendations? pics on a rifle ? looking for the best synthetic stock for this rifle

If you wanna go cheap and effective, you can get one of the plastic hawkeye stocks for around $60, and they make a pretty good looking rig.

not looking for cheap looking for the best

Well, you're at the right place. Order a McMillan. Wait 3 months and you get something like this:

Not synthetic, though, but better. Forgot to add.

That's a smart looking rig. What pattern and color ratio?

I would call that a synthetic stock which could be fiberglass or plastic thanks for the pic

McMillan Ruger Mark II Classic

Fost what is that colour called? do you like the forend length? these would be proportioned for a 24" barrel and seem long to me for a 20", you have one of the few black coloured ones out there

"McWoody" (34% Med Brown, 33% light Brown, 33% Black)

I personally had no issue (aside from aesthetics) with the forearm length.

Yes, doesn't seem to be that many stainless steel with the BlackDiamond coating. Not a problem though to coat the current SS models with Cerakote or the like.

The bottom one is an Alaskan:

The stock Hogue isn't exactly short. Looks pretty close to Fost

What is that? I thought it was coated by Ruger. Did Ruger contract the coating from someone? Shows what I know. Seems durable enough. I hope it doesn't come off in 10 yrs though.

The best thing about Fosteology's gun is that I bought it and it is sitting at my FFL for pick up later today. I am excited about it will let you all know about the loads I shoot through it.

Nice looking rifle, Spence.

Enjoy it!

I've had great results with the Borden Rimrocks for both the African and Alaskan 375 Rugers




Both were glass bedded.

thanks for the input
