Does any company make an aftermarket full length mannlicher stock? | ||

Depending on what you're looking for, you could probably get a mannlicher stock professionally turned and have better wood for something close to what you'd pay for a mass produced stock. Richard's can make a Mannlicher style stock for you, but they can have got a really long wait. I have a 7x57 Mannlicher planned for this coming year and I'm going to be going through a customer stock turner when I'm ready. Whatcha planning to build?

Thanks for the tips. I was thinking of taking a plain jane model 700 270 win and dressing it up. I was actually thinking about a fiberglass stock, but I am going to have to look into the custom wood stocks. Remington only makes them from the custom shop on the model 7 action. I don't like the looks of the CZ's. | |||

Richards Microfit is the best inexpensive mannlicher style stock, but the barrel length options are limited, particularly for a long action rifle. I recently ordered 2 laminated mannlicher style New Classic stocks from Richards for a pair of Remington 660s. Wenig also offers mannlicher style stocks, but they are far more expensive than anything offered by Richards. It takes some skill to fit a mannlicher style stock, so unless you are a pretty good wood butcher, you might want to reconsider going in that direction. I don't know of anyone who makes a synthetic mannlicher style stock. Jeff | |||
