Re: A little stipple work on the savage 110
Good looking gun. I have a savage 110 .308 with the choate tactical stock. Didn't even realize you could get bottom metal until here lately. I'm new to precision shooting. How much modification has to be done to the gun for the bottom metal to work?

If you have a mill it is an easy task. Jeff at CDI will do the work for $65 and that includes the shipping back to you. If you don't have a Mill or anyone in your area who does it then just send it in. Those Choate stocks have the aluminum that has to be milled out to work so the trying it with a dremel is possible but not fun or anything I would recommend. I also did the bolt lift and trigger job breaks right at 2lbs and there is no over travel just a crisp break.

No the action is 100% left alone. You only have to remove the old Bottom Metal.
