What stock for my Mod 70 RH SA (WTB)
I have a Winchester Post 64 push feed Model 70 Lighweight in 22-250.

I think I cooked the throat at about 1200 rds and it's now at 2000rds and I want to rebarrel.

I think I'll move up to a fat barrel such as a varmint taper at about 24"-26".

I'll also want a new stock and heres my question. What stock can I get that's reasonably priced that's similar to the HS Precision stocks on my 700VS's or maybe a benchrest stock?

I'd settle for a used or "take-off" if anyone has one. email at mr_appraiser@hotmail.com or just answer here.

Thanx.....

Thanx for the info... The McMillans look nice and are my number one choice but money is short right now.

If you run across a good used stock please let me know...

Leaving for a hunting trip on a couple of hours...

Thanx again.... [Big Grin]
