With all those Remingtons you getting Kurt why not order them an accublock until you got 12 thumbholes and 12 sporters. They run like $300 instead of $500 and I think they look outstanding. Besides you have a wide variety of colors to choose from.
Well, first off, I really don't like thumbhole stocks. I have some pretty good sized mitts (comes with being 6'6" and pretty beefy), so they really don't fit me very well, and I've never really liked the looks of them.
I may have to take a peep if they offer any sporter styles, but the fact of the matter is, I'm getting pretty well caught up with replacing the plastic stocks on my Remingtons... I think I need a stock for my .300 SAUM, and maybe one for a .270 that's going to probably end up a .338-06... both are likely to end up the the lightweight EDGE tech stocks. My M70s are all walnut with one laminate and one Mickey. My Howa 7 WSM is in a McSwirley.
Boy, if they only made this one for a Savage 110! I've sorta cogitated about replacing my Savage 7mm RM barrel with something in more of a varmint contour... maybe keeping it 7RM, maybe a .264 WM... that plum color kinda got my attention...
I don't think about the overall cost at all! I know, nutty huh. If I see a rifle I want and it is within my means, I get it. I don't have many issues with letting a rifle sit for a spell until I can scope it. I have a few knockaround scopes that I use on rifles for load work and such till I can afford to put better glass on them.
