Boyds stock for model 116

**Romero14** · 12-28-2015, 06:17 PM

I have a new savage model 116 trophy hunter xp in 25-06 and want to put a new stock on it. My question is will a Boyd's model 111 stock work for it. The reason I ask is because I can get it for $99 instead of $129. I have attached a link to the stock in question

Only issue you might have is the bottom metal... If your current model TH stock does not have a removable plastic frame surrounding the bottom part of the mag port you will have to order one from Savage Customer Service. About $20. Some of the TH's have this part molded into the stock, some are removable.

Thanks foxx. So I'll know when I take the plastic stock off if I have the removable frame or not? And what else will I need to order from Boyd's besides the replacement stock?

^^^The frame I am speaking of is on the outside of the stock. You can tell if it is removable or molded solid as part of the stock when looking at it from the outside. If it is one solid piece (then you need to order the frame from Savage. I don't think you will need anything else from Boyd's.

I got the S.Steel bottom metal, mag plate and trigger guard for my 116. Looks/feels like a real gun now! With the Boyds stock and added metal, the extra weight helps reduce the recoil substantially on my 300 wm. I also pillar bedded the stock as well, the wood tends to squish down on those stocks over time.
