Recently I replied to: SAVAGE TARGET ACTION PISTOL STOCK QUESTION thread but I'm still thinking of other options to replace my Neil Cooper stock on my Savage PTA. (4.41") looking for Bench, F-class, Varmit styles I have seen the cut down Choates, of course doing a laminate is easy. But how about cutting a Bell & Carlson? Has anyone done it? Easy to refinish? Any metal behind grip? (B&C Tactical Medalist 2) Thanks Mike B ---------------------------- Everything in excess! To enjoy the flavor of life, take big bites.

Well, taking the plunge. Just recvd the Medalist 2 stock. Test fit was great. minor barrel channel opening needed, forend not too long for my SP bbl.(no trim) Looks like only cutting off Butt & finishing grip is all that's needed. Fit my Savage PTA great, looks like bedding not needed. I'll update as project continues. Mike B ---------------------------- Everything in excess! To enjoy the flavor of life, take big bites.

How are you doing Jon? It's good to hear from you. Unfortinatly my health hasn't been the best lately so I haven't been shooting much..... well, actually at all. But I'm hoping that'll change soon so I can get back out there. Bryant | ||||

Hi Bryant, it's great to hear from you. We miss your posts. Wishing you the Best. Jon | ||||

Thanks Freeze, sent you a few to post. Only thing left is finishing the cut area. I've been experimenting with tinting epoxy, in blk/charchol to finish over cut. Went for a test shoot, and even tho I was shooting Load-D of a new bullet am very happy so far. The pistol shot in the 2s for the first time... No bedding done.
