pre64 M-70 fiberglass stock for drop magazine
Who makes a fiberglass stock for a standard length pre64 M-70 with a drop magazine (hold four 375 Ruger rounds down)?

I know McMillan does not make one.


Anyone else make one?


Thanks

I think they do offer one; I know I built one on there stock a while ago and it had the drop box. Can't remember who I built it for though.

MHC_TX Here goes with an idea...mill out the "lip"in the action that positions the facory sheet metal magazine box.

Then make up a new box (wider),,just butt it up against the bottom of the action (this is not rocket science)

Bet a big mac that it will hold four rounds down with standard depth.


Gotta check the math, but I think it will do the trick..

Oh..."checking the math" means making up a model. If anyone else has done this aleady, let me know
