[QUOTE="Dry Heat?, post: 1659018, member: 105495"] I bought a B&C Medalist Stock for an initial run Remington 700 BDL in 7mm RM that my Dad bought in 1962. It now belongs to my nephew. The stock was pretty beat up and the bluing was worn after 50 some years of Arizona hunting. I bedded the new stock with acra glass, had Craig’s Custom Rifles Ceracote it in Coyote Brown, installed a Leupold Scope on it, then scrubbed the hell out of the bore. (Dad wasn’t an advocate of regularly cleaning the Rifle and only shot a few rounds to verify zero, then go deer hunting each year). I loaded some Hornady 162 gr SSTs over IMR 4831 and R 22. The loads were amazingly accurate for a Rifle that will soon be 60 years old. It had never shot Groups that small before. My Nosler M48 Liberty has the exact same stock and is proven to be very accurate so far. So I had no hesitations about ordering the same stock for my own 7mm RM that I’ve given to my oldest son. The B&C Medalist is a great stock. My McMillan Game Warden is nice but for the money, the B&C is hard to beat. [/QUOTE]
