Not to highjack a thread or anything but D Eagle, I just bought a barrelled action stainless in 300 SAUM. I’m excited but it has to be on the back burner till spring. But I’ll be buying a wild cat composite stock as well.
I agree with getting a stock from wildcat composites as well, great guy to deal with. As of bottom metal, I don’t know what you should do. What caliber of rifle and what’s the main purpose of the gun?
