There are (minor) differences at least around the tang and the bottom metal. Nothing that can't be fixed, but it is not a drop-in fit.

pretty close, and no actions gaps.. that is, everything you have to change would be removing material

if you drop a MRC into a Win action you'll have a big gap to fill around the tang

I had no problems with the tang but had to widen and lengthen the inetting for the front ring. This was in a original Winchester plastic stock. Also had to adjust the inletting for the bottom metal.
