Does any one have a picture of a Remington sporter contour barrel sitting in a McMillan Mountain Rifle stock. I am looking for a picture showing what the barrel looks like in the forearm area. Trying to see how much meat is left in the forearm of the stock. Thanks for the help.

I have one with a Savage sporter contour, which is smaller than the M700 sporter. Doesn't leave much room on each side of the barrel.

I've had a #2 Pac-nor in that MR stock and it is about as big as I'd want to go. It looked fine and not over-stuffed. A standard Rem sporter would be fine in my book, going to a mag contour would be top-end and more akin to the #2 PN. The MR remains my favorite handle for anything below a magnum contour.

You might google the 700 LS in 221 Fireball. If memory serves, it was a laminated MR handle with factory sporter barrel. I bought a factory-new laminated MR stock as a take-off and it must have come off of one of those rifles, as it was cut for the standard sporter, not the pencil MR contour.


Now with even more aplomb
