New Low Cost 20 PPC Build

[searcher]

I really like the Boyds Pro Varmint stocks. Good lines. I modify them by flattening off the bottom of the forearm so they ride bags and truck window rests better and usually have to open the barrel channels for heavier contour barrels. Not perfect inletting, but it's pretty close and can be mostly corrected with the mill and some elbow grease. For the money you cant touch the quality of these stocks with anything else. I have 3 of them on varmint rifles now and plan to use them on all my future varmint rifle builds.

Flattening the forearm is a nice touch. So few varmint stocks are so configured.

Ledd,
I keep going back to this thread and studying it. How does your rifle shoot? Anything you would do different? Any info would be appreciated.

Unfortunately, I still haven't done any load development with it! Just been too busy with too many irons in the fire. Actually considering selling this rifle along with a few others to downsize inventory. I have dies, brass, and the reamer, could work a deal with the 5-25x scope as well. So if anyone is interested on this thread, shoot me a PM. Otherwise i will probably place a classified ad for it this coming week

What price were you thinking? What twist is the barrel?

I have been eyeing my table saw to "rough" the bottom of the forend flat until I get my shop room finished and move the mill in. I have bolted the action and bottom metal into the stock and compared the pillar length to the actual inlet depth. It looks like I can continue that cut all the way back to the grip and clean up the recess of the bottom metal into the stock. Even if I screw it up I am only out the cost of the stock but if it works I think it will look pretty sharp.

It’s a 1 in 10” twist. Can hash out pricing details privately in a PM if you’re interested
