Having a time finding a hunting stock for my 300WM Sako 75...
I need a straight stock, w/ no cheekpiece, so I can shoot w/ either hand.
Iam primariliy a lefty, but I dont like to shoot my Sako which is actioned right handed, left handed.
I like synthetic, will consider wood....Mcmillan just told me they couldnt help me out...sakofan...thanks

Sakofan, how much "drop in" do you want?? Or are you willing to work with a semi-finished stock?? If yes, places like Richards Microfit Stocks offer stocks. They stress how it is (or should be?) possible to alter their stocks - e.g. by removing cheek pieces.

Don't know if this will work??

If I'm not mistaken, Bell & Carlson (sp?) made a Sako stock without a cheekpiece "back in the old days"... Maybe they still do?? The stocks are not the lightest, but seem to be quite serviceable - check discussion under AR discussion of B&C stocks

Sakofan, check Bell & Carlson - under "our products", "1 piece Carbelite stock". It lists "Sako", don't know if this is Sako 75??

FWIW - mike

Thanks mho, I appreciate your help...Iam sooo bummed!!
I did check out Richards microfit, will check out the Bell and Carson now...I REALLY love synthetic....thanks again...sakofan...

Wenig Gunstocks they make the most beautiful stocks ive ever seen but they run up to 2500.00 dollars. It would be perfect for your sako so go to www.wenig.com and you wont regret it

Sakofan, try MPI Stocks, they do make stocks for Sako. I've had pretty good luck with them and they can also make stuff that isn't normally listed. You can get them at www.mpistocks.com and their phone number is also on their site. Hope this helps.
