Stocks; McMillan vs. H-S Precision

[tankerman]

Yep.
Take-off HS stocks are the way to go.

I'm not sure how easy it will be to find a take-off for a left hand Sako.
Would be nice to save some money though. Might get lucky.

I've always liked the looks of the HS.

Maybe get a Remington 700?

Lefthand 700p's go pretty cheap.
I just passed one up for $500 a few weeks ago.
That's a complete gun, with HS stock.

For someone who is looking for a HSP stock

THis is a 700PSS, stock + bottom metal + eagle stock pack.... for $250...
Good deal!!

+1 McMillan,on my M40A1 and M1A - also has Military history so that means something - tuff.

Nice cheekpiece, Randall.

I've seen used Mcmillans on the hide go for as little as $350(A3 with no cheekrest) depending on the model.

Nice cheekpiece, Randall.

About $2 in material and an hour or two of tinkering.
Two aluminum pillars are bedded into the stock.
Then a piece of kydex is heated up and folded over the stock.
Figure out what height it needs to be and then drill the holes in the kydex.
Then finish cleaning it up into a nice shape and screw it on.
Completely custom fitted to the shooter so there's no need for adjustments which could come loose...
