Features of Mark Pharr stocks.
I'm new to silhouette (haven't even shot a single match yet), but I have read here and elsewhere that Mark Pharr stocks are very highly thought of. I'm modifying a factory ruger 10/22 stock so that it's more suitable for silhouette competition.
I would like to incorporate some of the features that make the Pharr stocks so well thought of. I will do a high comb (within the rules), a fairly deep forend (within the rules), and try to keep the overall shape like that of a classic hunting rifle.
What are some of the other features of a Pharr stock that make it particularly useful for silhouette? As I have said, I'm a newbie, but would like to put a decent foot forward.
Thanks for any advice.

the stock is great. well designed for off-hand shooting. it is very light which allows one to balance the rifle as they desire whithout a fight. what adds all the value is Mark's work. His fit and finish is absolutely beautiful. He works with you so you get exactly what you are looking for. the stock is a stock... it is the work that Mark or Marv do that makes all the difference.

What's a "ballpark" price?
What's a ballpark price for a Pharr stock for a "standard" action?

...
Non-inletted w/ a standard speckel or solid color = $275
Fade from one color to another = add $50
Don't hold me to this, but I'm 95% sure.
Keep in mind this is the stock price alone, it then has to be inletted and bedded to your action...

He doesn't watch the boards but is very accessable via e-mail

Re: ...
Maybe a picture would help. Top is his first desgn with my 1712 installed, the bottom is my Remington 40x that he just finished in the new split finger disign. As you can see he can do wood or composite.Anonymous wrote:Dave,
They are a carbon fiber if I am correct? But he can get you a wood dupped if you so wish.
