Older model 116.. to much Hennessey! Forgot about Boyds

First, I'm assuming the word "loker" is supposed to be "older".
I'll bet you a gazillion dollars that the screw spacing is 5.062" and not 5 inches even. That would make it a standard Savage long action so any stock designated to fit a 110/111/112/114/116 will work.
The real question is what style drop mag do you have? Is the mag release a button on the side or a lever on the bottom? If it's a side button then you're pretty much S.O.L as no one that I know of makes an aftermarket stock for that style. Only real option would be if Numrick's Gun Parts happens to still have a factory wood one available, but I wouldn't hold my breath.

Jim, was the 116 made back when they had the side mag release? Could a SF mag be used in a SF blind mag stock for a side button release rifle by blocking the mag in the well?

Yes, its actually 5.062, I have both a blind mag and one with the side release button. Boyds does advertise a stock for the actions with the 5.062 action screw spacing

If you`re looking online at the Boyds website, be sure to read all of the stuff at the bottom of the page because I think it says it won`t work with the side button release. I could be wrong on that so be sure to check before ordering.Originally Posted by big norm
I'm 99% sure Boyds doesn't offer anything for the older side-button drop mags. I think Hogue or Bell & Carlson did at one time, but whether they're still available or not I have no clue and both would be synthetic. The verbage you need to look for would read something like "Savage 110 flat-top staggered-feed detachable magazine with side button release."
The other option would be to convert the drop magazine gun to a blind magazine which would greatly increase your stock options.

Yeah, I intend on converting it to a blind mag, could care less about a drop mag!
