[QUOTE="MudRunner2005, post: 1218200, member: 12995"] What kind of scope do you have? Scope tube diameter determines the ring diameter. Most folks these days use scopes with 30mm tubes (or larger) for LR shooting/hunting, since the 30mm+ size tubes gathers more light and have a larger erector that allows for more reticle adjustment and travel for shooting farther distances. As for your stock length, you can most-likely have a gunsmith trim that stock down to 12.5" LOP if that is what you prefer. I don't trim down any of mine, I have always used standard LOP stocks. I can't guarantee those can, you might want to call B&C and find out first. If not, they might could make you one. Going from ADL to BDL the only difference is the aluminum floorplate/trigger guard piece that allows the magazine follower and spring to drop out of the way (they both use the same follower and spring, and a similar mag box), so that lightweight trigger guard piece might add an ounce or 2 of weight tops.
