There are not many (if any) made for the 6-lug stock other than the Bell & Carlson. Even if you contact McMillan or similar, I suspect it will be a special order with full wait time. I don't recall any ever being for sale on a forum, eBay, Gunbroker, etc.My apologies. 6 lug, non magnum.
I referred to it as a short action out of habit due to the cartridge being a 308.
Do you have a stock or recommendation that may for the bill?
At this rate, something along those lines may be my only optionBuy a flat top and have Chad Dixon inlet it.
Not inexpensive, whether you do his inletting at $375 or bedding at $750.Buy a flat top and have Chad Dixon inlet it.
I think I'm just going to keep the factory stock and have it cut down to my LOP, cerakoted and bedded. I spoke at length with a stock builder today and he said Weatherby MkVs are so expensive that people generally don't want to devalue the rifle by making changes and the demand for match/tactical style Weatherbys is next to zero.Not inexpensive, whether you do his inletting at $375 or bedding at $750.
A B&C is not the worst option in the world, but if it doesn't come in the shape you want then the stock work will soon cost more than the value of the rifle. Just be sure you go into it eyes wide open.
Almost cheaper to rebarrel a 9 lug action as a .308 so you can use a production stock from McMillan.
