OK...maybe I misunderstood, thought you wanted an existing stock bent

You didnt missunderstand, i was under the wrong impression.. Strait stocks reduce recoil.. but they need to be wide enough for a large recoil pad and heavy enough for the amount of recoil.... Daryl said to call dakota arms and they said this. Also it should have less drop than a ruger for a heavy recoiling gun.. It probably pertains to the average person, and if you want a scope or not, im not sure.. so i dont need the stock bent, i need to figure out how to get a wider recoil pad on it, and still look good, maybe a little higher.. Its been a journey for me to get the correct info on this.. but im starting to get serious about the ruger .458 lott in thier 10 pound upgraded rifle with triple express sights.. thanks for all of your help.. dave
