Thanks guys for the replies. I decided to take a look at possible using the B&C Savage Dura Maxx stock also, partly because I can get it for half the price of the B&C Medalist. I am assuming it too could be opened up too for a straight bull barrel, am I right? I know it is about 1/2 pound lighter in weight and a smaller profile overall. However what I wanted to know what is the approximate forearm taper/ maximum width of these stocks. Thanks Again Bill
