[QUOTE="MudRunner2005, post: 967351, member: 12995"] I've never fitted a Boyd's stock, but I have fitted a stock before. I'm a metalsmith, not a carpenter. I don't own a Boyds stock and never will. I also don't use Timney triggers, therefore I don't have to worry about cutting a relief for any of them...I'll just buy a Jewell that drops right in. I have done extensive woodworking before (and I used to lay tile, hardwood floors, and trim houses for a living), and it is not my cup of tea....Although I am a surgeon with anything involving metalworking or powertools or handtools (been custom fabbing for 16 years now). $100 (needing work performed) vs $250 (drop-in)....I'll take the $250 stock anyday over the $99 stock. Number 1, it is more rugged, and number 2, it has an alumunum bed block. That is just MY preference, just like your preference is the Boyd's stock. Function vs cost....Function is more important to me than saving $150. If you like Boyd's stocks....Use them! I don't, therefore I don't use them. Internet opinion or not, facts are facts and people will still use what they like, and will all like different things. That's why we have so many options. Also, I personally think you will ruin a Sendero by putting it in a Boyd's......That HS Precision stock it came in will be a much higher quality and rigid unit. [/QUOTE]
