Bought a 6.5 CM today. Savage 12FV from Cabela's. Was dang hard to pass up the $369.99 price tag with an included voucher for a $100 rebate putting final price at $269.99. My question is this...the 12FV is a blind box magazine. What if any aftermarket bottom metal is available for that rifle? As far as ammo goes, got 2 boxes of Nosler branded 120NBT. Should be murder on whitetails. Bought them mainly for the Nosler brass.
It would be hard to beat that rifle for $270, if you were looking for a longer/heavier 6.5 Creedmoor.
Are you asking about inletting the factory issue injection molded stock for some sort of after-market bottom metal with a hinged floorplate? It wouldn't be hard to do with a mill, but it would take some time and you'd have to do a cost-benefit analysis to determine if the cost was worth it to you. I'd be more likely to opt for a Boyds laminated stock, like the Prairie Hunter style, if I was going to do an inexpensive stock upgrade and adapt myself to the blind magazine.
