I just tried to order a stock from Boyd's. I have a newer 12fv .223 with the heavy barrel. My issue is with the takedown screw spacing. My rifle has a 4.375 spacing. The stock i was looking at had 4.437 spacing and they didn't offer spacing for my rifle. My question to all you guys is what spacing would work for my rifle. I'm having an awfully hard time finding one with my spacing. I know this issue has probably came up a million times before, so I will apologize for asking again.

This is the dimensions on the stock I was looking to buy:

Boyd's Pro Varmint

Barrel Dimensions: Point A = 1 5/16" and Point B = 1 1/16"

  • Center to Center of Action Screws: 4 7/16"
  • Over All Length of Part: 31 1/2"
  • Comes with Boyds' 1/2" Rubber Recoil Pad.
