    What stock for Target Action build?


    I would love to build a single shot deer rifle using a Savage Target Action.

    My understanding is that I could set the trigger at around 3 lbs. for hunting, correct?

    And I should be able to have a 22" or 23" long sporter contour barrel on it, shouldn't I?

    I'm posting this to ask for suggestions about where I could acquire a fairly lightweight, composite, sporter-style stock for this rifle. I would want a true single shot stock, not one with the stock milled out for any type of magazine. Can anyone steer me in the right direction for a stock like this, without me going the pure cu$tom route?

    Thanks in advance for any help you can share.

    I don't know where you will find a stock like that off the shelf. Maybe the factory or Numrich.
    As for the target action remember they are large shank so it is also a different than standard barrel.
    Try to find a model 12 Varmint single shot they are still around and you get what you want.

    SharpShooterSupply - Pro Hunter inlet for your target action. 275 ready to finish.
    The Dunning-Kruger effect is alive and well.

    No problem, I have two of their stocks and think they are a great value.
