    Go to Boyds(sponsor here) they make the long action thumbhole for stagger feed and with a little work you can make it work for a centerfeed.I&#39;ve gotten them for $100 delivered.

    How much work is involved in making them fit? Does stockys offer one for the long action? I like their colors and variety.

    Takes less than an hour to fit it, small shim in front of mag box and removal of a little material in front of rear action screw so that the "L" bracket fits and possible sanding of barrel channel,that depends on the contour of your barrel.Now all this is only needed if you own a centerfeed.
    Stocky&#39;s may have it in the Tundra but colors are limited.
    You can also look here http://www.gunpartscorp.com/catalog/...px?catid=12160 these are factory stocks and colors are very limited but there are long action ones you just have to look through them.

    Re: Newbie to aftermarket stocks

    Oh ok thanks kinda had brain fart!!! It is stagger feed. Now the decision is weather or not to have pillars put in and glass bed the action does it really make that big of a diff in accuracy that a hunting rig would benefit from? Just wanna do this right the first time as i dont have a ton of time to build and tear down repeatedly

    Re: Newbie to aftermarket stocks


    To some it matters.I have a couple that have no bedding and shoot just fine.Only way to tell is put it together and try it, if it is unacceptable take it appart once bed it set the pillars and then try it again. All told taking it appart and putting together is a 5 minute job.
    If you look at the Numrich site I posted for you most of them have factory pillars, and believe it or not a lot of rifles are very very accurate with out bedding and or pillars.
