Source for bench rest stocks for Savage where you can actually get one?

No one mentioned boyd's stocks.

I have 2 of the AT-one stocks and they are OK.

You must piller and bed the actions for best results.
I actually mention them in the very first post. I was specifically looking for the wide front benchrest style. This was a thread from 2020 that was brought up again. If Boyd's would make one they could sell a crap ton of them for the Savage rifle.
 
I have a Boyds Pro Varmint, good stock for the $$, and rides a BE front rest with a Protektor bag pretty damn good IMO. You can get an adjustable check riser on this model, but you have to lower back to the lowest position to remove the bolt for cleaning, or if range rules require the bolt out for safe condition. You have to use an allen/hex wrench to adjust the cheek riser, so...... I still like the stock tho.

Sorry about that, I guess you did mention them.

Here is what I added to the forend of my Boyds stocks so they would ride in my front rest.

Oh yeah that looks good. I have a friend that just built a .308 using the Boyd's AT one and it turned out pretty nice. He found somebody making a rear bag rider for them.

There was a guy that was 3D printing a bag rider for the AT-one stocks.
I purchased one and found that the rider was not parallel with the forend, so when the gun slides back and forth it would change the target in the cross hairs. I made one for the second stock and made the bag rider parallel and now i can move the gun back and forth and not change the target .

Brian Buttrick of Plainfield Precision put my Savage barreled action in this stock. He also put on a new trigger, made a new brake, and bead blasted the barrel and brake.
