scarecrow243 Posted June 17, 2019 Report Share Posted June 17, 2019 Hi I have a Winchester model 70 .243 featherweight compact I have tried searching for a longer stock but cant find one a wood or synthetic would be ok if anyone has a synthetic they want to swap for a wood stock Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve_b_wales Posted June 17, 2019 Report Share Posted June 17, 2019 Have you thought about adding an extension to your stock? I fitted a 2" spacer inside a rubber slip on boot and it worked well. May not have looked 'good' but it's my NV rifle anyway! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scarecrow243 Posted June 17, 2019 Author Report Share Posted June 17, 2019 Hi Steve I tried a slip on recoil pad with and without an insert it was no good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mick miller Posted June 20, 2019 Report Share Posted June 20, 2019 (edited) H-S Precision. £749 (fully adjustable) £599 (standard). They're flipping brilliant. Order from here (fill in the request form). You can go on H-S Precisions site, build your own, copy the details and order the spec in the UK from Barton GunWorks - around 8-10 week wait to be made, shipped, clear customs etc. You might have to pay a little more for a modified one (length of pull). Just had one put onto my CZ527 Edited June 20, 2019 by mick miller Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seeker Posted June 20, 2019 Report Share Posted June 20, 2019 If you're thinking in that league try Staffs Synthetic Stocks for your own spec, colour s etc etc ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No aluminium bedding block. Not really comparable, I have a SSS one and the HS stocks are in a different league altogether.

mick miller Posted June 21, 2019 Report Share Posted June 21, 2019 (edited) Pretty much all stocks are going to be in that ballpark. My KRG for the tikka was £530, staffs stock was around the same, maybe more. You could try a boyds, but there not anywhere near the same quality. I'd suggest a gunsmith (old style, one that can restock or shape shotgun stocks) get an extension put onto your existing rifle stock. Still run you a couple of hundred quid though. Or, as Steve suggests, slip on extender. Edited June 21, 2019 by mick miller Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
