New Stock Fitting

Post by Rhysk »

As i am still pretty fresh to the the F Open/F class shooting and rifle setup.
I'm currently looking at putting my 7mm SAUM in to a new stock, when i purchased it was originally setup for a left handed Shooter, and the deal was too good not to refuse so i had altered it slightly to fit better but not perfect.

I want to Fit a new stock that is to suit right hand correctly and possible fit me.
Looking around i have drawn an interest to the DIMA stocks. and this is where the questions start, do i get it Inlet done by Dima or have it done by my Gun Smith ? My Inlet will be for a BAT MB, and i would assume best thing to do is bed it my self.
my other question is what other options do i have for stocks or getting one made local as me and wood work are not best friends. :lol:

My advice is to speak with your gunsmith on their preference in regards to ordering a stock as a "flat top" for them to inlet and bed VS having Dima do the inletting and then your gunsmith bed it. I do know some gunsmiths prefer to do the inletting themselves to ensure its straight/true.

Cost would vary on timber and specs I would suggest talking to Tim, he was able to start mine after about 3 weeks
