Synthetic stocks?
Who makes a good quality synthetic stock for a custom 1903A3 actioned rifle?

There is not one synthetic stock for the 1903A3 action?

Come on! Somebody has got to make one.

I am certainly not the only guy who wants one.

IIRC, Butler Creek makes or made one as does or did Hogue. IMO, the Butler Creeks were bigtime BUTT UGLY.

Ramline makes one. I have put two on 03s they all have to be glass bedded in my opinon but they work.

Do you drill the plastic so the bedding compound will stick?

Yep drill it, sand it take a knife to it and cut some grooves in it. I drill the holes at differant angles both sides and bottom. I have bedded 10 or so of them and haven't had a bit of trouble with the bedding coming loose.

Take your time pep it right clean all the dust and that out should work just fine.

Rimrock makes a synthetic for springfield '03's.
They're listed under the composition heading on the Rimrock site.

I like the looks of that rimrock stock but I can't find a price on their website. I supose that means if I have to ask it's too expensive.
