Conforming stock question
Posted: Mon Dec 21, 2015 3:19 pm
I am posting this in the Smallbore sub-forum since there seems to be more activity here although the responses would apply equally to HP
I am looking for a list of stocks to which a Remington 700/40X or clone action that conform to NRA rules can be mounted.
I shot HP and SB Rifle Silhouette some years ago. I have been out of the game for a while and am looking to get back in.
I had 40X’s for both HP and SB (I shot Standard Rifle only and not Hunter.) with McMillan stocks and was never all that comfortable with the stocks. Not sure what model they were, probably what McMillan calls the ‘Classic’. I often wondered about other stock configurations but since mine were glued in it was not practical to switch them around. I am especially interested in thumb hole and pistol type grip stocks.
I may also look stocks that are non-conforming in that they are have adjustable cheek piece and/or butts that could be fixed in place per NRA rules once I get things dialed in I will. A list of those type of stocks would be appreciated also.
So, to state clearly what I am looking for is two lists:
1. Stocks that will fit a Remington 700/40X/clone that conform to NRA Silhouette rules for Standard Rifle.
2. Stocks that will fit a Remington 700/40X/clone that are adjustable for cheek piece, butt stock or otherwise that can be made to conform to NRA rules by modification or causing them to be “fixed and sealed in place”. This list might also include stocks that can be modified such as reducing the width of the forearm or reducing the weight.
Thanks!
