I was very new to firearms when I purchased a Model 11 Trophy Hunter XP Compact in .308 caliber. I took it to the range and shot it a few different times before realizing the length of pull was way too short for me. It's very uncomfortable to shoot. I measured my LOP at 14-1/2", and the compact has a 12-3/4" LOP. I will be spending time at the range with this gun, but I hope to use it for hunting big game in North America, mainly whitetail for now though. I do like how lightweight this setup is currently. The options for affordable stocks with a long enough LOP for this model are pretty limited from what I've found. I've looked at the Boyd's, Hogue and B&C options, but I also have to tack on another $100 for the bottom metal since I have the plastic stock with detachable magazine. So my question to the savage experts here is, do I spend the $250 or more on a new stock, or sell this one and buy a new rifle with a longer LOP?
