I am about to sacrafice a stockys thumbhole to make a stryker stock. It is a perfect fit for the left hand action. The forearm will have to be chopped back a bit and will fit the heavy sporter barrel. Will fill the bolt handle cut and move over to the left side.

Where to chop the butt is another matter. The hand hold and grip are perfect. Thinking of leaving the thumb hole as is with a cradle behind that to rest against the wrist. So about 2-4 inches could be left behind the thumhole and brought back into the bottom of the grip. That leaves the top shelf for the safety tang intact. Should be strong enough for mild cartridges.

Any suggestions?
