Hey Ghost. Before you get all wrapped up in a stock, put a good scope on it, take it out and put a bunch of rounds through it, and let the rifle tell you what it wants. That is what I am going through with my second savage (third if you count the 1904), and the plan has changed already without having put a single round through her. Get the mechanics working first, and enjoy. This will give you time to decide just what you really want the rifle to do. Just my humble opinion.
