farbedoHowa 1500/Weatherby Vanguard Stock ???
Will these fit into a Sako L61R stock? Is the bottom metal the same, similar?
I know that these are reasonable copies of the Sako action, but I am not sure how close they are.

speerchucker30x378I don't have one in front of me and I have never tried it, so I could very well be wrong. But just going on the fact that no one ever does it and it's not talked about. I would say no. The odds are that even if you could make it work. It would look like the dogs-breakfast.
On top of that, actual Sako replacement stocks are worth a lot of $$$$$ so I wouldn't start chopping one up to save a dollar. Far better to put it on Ebay and sell it and put some of the money you get toward one of the many synthetics that are out there for the 1500 or if you must have wood, you can get a nice replacement from Boyds and possibly still have enough money left over from the sale of the Sako stock to buy a 6 pack of beer.
Just sayin.
