Well HV is 13.5lb, but bart uses a hv scarbrough on his 17lb ibs light gunJust curious. Has anyone used their 3 inch LV Scarborough or Scoville stock on a HV 171b setup? If so, how does it handle.
I could easily make weight with a heavier scope and add weight in the backend of the stock.
Thanks

Wow!Why a Scoville? How old are you? My buddy was waiting 3 years for his stock....before his action was lost by LB. Still waiting.
Some liars will lie to your face, other liars will climb a tree and lie to you.......

Thanks. I used the wrong terminology. I am talking about using the Scarborough that is used to make 10.5 on a ibs 17lb. gun.Well HV is 13.5lb, but bart uses a hv scarbrough on his 17lb ibs light gun
That still doesn’t make any sense????I am talking about using the Scarborough that is used to make 10.5 on a LV 17lb. gun.
Either Scoville or Scarborough used to make 10.5.Why a Scoville? How old are you? My buddy was waiting 3 years for his stock....before his action was lost by LB. Still waiting.

Fixed it- ibs 17lbThat still doesn’t make any sense????
I have one. I put a hv barrel on it, a picatinny weight, a stainless picatinny rail, a terminator scope, and a tungsten weight in the back. The lv designed rifle becomes a 17lb light gun. Bart uses a hv designed stock, big scope and big barrel in the light gun class. You can add weight quickly, its hard to take it awayFixed it- ibs 17lb
Thanks. I wish I had thought to ask this question about 12k dollars ago.No problem to make your scoville or scarbrough into a 17lb gun
I do too if you got $12k in itThanks. I wish I had thought to ask this question about 12k dollars ago.
Different guns, trying different things. Ultimately, I think I am going to end up wanting to use one or two guns for all things and change the barrel and scopes accordingly.I do too if you got $12k in it
Great questions. Maybe @BartsBullets will chime in on this.To further this question about making a short range Scarbough into a 17pound HG. I know Bart has done this. I wonder if Bart pillar bedded or “glued and screwed” his action in. Most all of the short range Scarbrough/ Scoville’s are just “glue in’s” that I have seen. A 28 inch HV might be too much for a glue in. Plus the extra recoil and torque of a long range barrel may be a lot for a glue in. I talking about a short range 22 inch 13.5tw PPC shooting 68g bullets vs a 28 inch 8tw 6BRA shooting 103-108 grainers.
I have 2 HV Scarborough’s and 2 LV Scarborough stocks. They are all glued and screwed with Bat DS actions. I’ve shot all of them for long rang competition with 28 inch barrel and a heavy scope (Terminator or Precision) with a weight screwed into the butt of the stock.Great questions. Maybe @BartsBullets will chime in on this.
I have shot quite a few 30br rounds through my glued in LV Bat 3l. Quite a bit of torque and recoil but it shoots dots and I have seen no harm to it.
Thanks @BartsBullets; I think. That sure sounds consoling, but something about it just don’t feel right.@Ccrider youre getting off cheap I dumped over 20K into it before I figured out I already had what I needed.
