[QUOTE="JIsbell40, post: 1258048, member: 99153"] I'm new in this neck of the woods, so bear with me! I recently bought a donor rem 700 adl in 7mm magnum. I had originally planned to pull the barrel off immediately and put a new stock on. But I decided to shoot some groups with 215M primers, 168 Berger, and RL 23 velocity is 3020 from my 26" pencil barrel. It shoots them well. 1/2 moa to 500 that in good conditions. My problem is I can't deal with the cheap feeling Remington adl stock any longer. I've already got the adl to bdl conversion, now I have to make a choice on the stock. I really love the McMillan game scout/warden, but one of my friends has a pull off bell and Carlson m40 he's willing to sell for $150. Which route to I go? Obviously the m40 is contoured for a Remington varment contour, but I'll eventually be putting an aftermarket barrel on(I'm thinking bartlein or Krieger). Do I "buy once cry once" and go for the McMillan or cheap out and go with the bell and Carlson? [/QUOTE]
