[QUOTE="Philward, post: 2000576, member: 92604"] Did same thing back in 2004 or so, same era rifle and it's been through a couple slight changes. First was change to a Rem classic stock and bdl bottom metal. Then installed a QwickClip for a few years. Now it has Rem factory DBM installed. Stripped the classic stock to bare wood and finished with Spar Varnish. Bedded the action and first couple inches of barrel. But it's not any lighter. :( In photo top stock is original, I like the lines of the classic better. Interestingly my father owned this rifle back in the 70's, sold it to a co-worker, who sold it after many years to another coworker, whom I bought it from for $300 including the Leupold 2.5-8 scope.
