Boyds stock for FV-SR

[rainman74]

I just ordered a Boyds Rimfire Hunter stock and new trigger guard and floor plate. Does anyone know it I will need different action screws for this setup?

If you ordered your bottom metal from DIP, DIPs website and this form name the exact screw(s) you need.
(ill assume this is a plastic stock to a wood laminate one, with a e-style reciever?)

Make sure you post pics when you get it setup. I'd like to see the rimfire hunter on an FV-SR since I'm thinking about going that route.

I put an SS Evolution on mine (with thier bottom metal and trigger gaurd) and was able to use my action screws from the plastic stock. I just had to unscrew the "lugs" on the receiver a bit to get the screws to catch. Worked fine and stays tight.

How does it balance? Wondering where the balance point will be with the shorter and lighter FV-SR

Seems a little front heavy but this is also a bull barrel, but not enough to bother me. I really like the feel of that stock!

Does the Boyds rimfire hunter make the Savage feel like a full rifle LOP?

Thats the only thing I freaking hate about the Savage rifles. Barreled actions are good, stocks are shitty as hell.

It's either the Rimfire hunter and have it bedded or an expensive McMillan for the one I'm working on.

I'm not a very big fan of wood and would have to bed it with the recent cracking issues w/ Boyds tacticool stock.

LOP on the rimfire hunter is 13 3/4" - I would have to assume it would feel like a full length rifle stock.
