What's a 504? I know about 409...very powerful in the kitchen.

Keep it up Kitty - I'll get that 547 I've always wanted!

Remmy, he's talking about the Remington 504, a fetish of mine. They have a well deserved reputation for being erratic and nearly gave me another nervous breakdown. Kinda like the old girlfriend that abused you and made you like it...

BC..I thought you married that old girlfriend.

Remmy...stay away from the 504, doesn't hold a candle to the older Remingtons at all.

BB...I know fetishes (from stories I have been told.

)....and I must say that 504's are pretty disappointing as fetishes go...

Point taken - I'll try to do better in the future.

I will, I went the BSEV route with a EFR. Just came back today from running 200 rounds through it. From the bench it just makes one hole,5 rounds or ten, the hole just gets a little bigger...around 50 rounds I got bored and shot a smilyface.,it's not that hard, mouth is a little hard to do. Shooting with a scope is odd, it's going to take time to get used to it. Dialed it back to 8 and then up to 12x for off hand, that's about max for me right now. I can keep everything in the black and bull off hand, but I only had 25yrds in the range. Long way to go...but it rocks. Wooster make some high mounts at legal maximum for my long neck, Glad I took your advice and went with him, he knows his stuff, plus a nice guy to boot.

Remmy:
I have one of those Boyd's stocks (forgot the actual name of the model), that I inletted for a Biathlon Basic action. If you plan to use it for any "big time" silhouette matches, there are a couple of dimensions that you might want to check first. I don't know if the Savage will have the same issues, however, as the geometry of the Biathlon action is a little funny.

The first was that the drop from the C/L of the barrel to the bottom of the forearm was outside of the Silhouette rules. I don't have my rulebook handy, but I seem to remember that 2.25" is the maximum allowable. The second was that there was not enough wood forward of the barrel/reciever junction. I think that the forend must extend at least 8" in front of the barrel/reciever interface. For my Biathlon action, there was less than 8" of forend.

Anyway, your rifle looks great, and those stocks really work well for offhand shooting.

I figured it might be out of spec, there's a left hand Mark II stock that would do it, if I had to. I think a shoot in the nationals is a little ways off for me.

But let me know if you find more spec's.

Thanks,
B.

The stock I bought was a factory second, unfinished, uninletted model. The depth of the forend could have been modified by removing some material from the bottom surface to get it into specs. I ended up milling the bottom flat and fitting a piece of aluminum channel over the forend. I'll post some pics, but it certainly won't fit with everyone's tastes.

I would guess that yours might be a little too deep also, but it would be a shame to mess up the finish.

As far as the length of the forend, yours may be OK. The Biathlon action is very long, so the barrel / receiver junction is probably more forward in the stock as compared to your rifle.

Hi Steve,
yeah post your mods, it's a comp gun so I'm not worried about cutting into it, plus I know wood working so I can do just about anything in wood.
Could you send me or direct me to these more exact measurment rules? I can only find the rule book that talks in general terms, maybe I missed it.
