Ok now that my first 700 is done time to build another. Lucky for me my wife wants this one for her. It will be chambered it .243
I would like help with stock selection. Want quality but I don't want to have to send it out to get bedded. Any help would be great. I like HS precision but open to other options
 
You don't say what the rifle will be used for, you also don't give a budget.
If she is going to carry the rifle, weight is an issue.
If it is a range rifle only, weight is less of a factor.

Take a look at Manners, they have an incredible assortment of custom stocks from lightweight hunting to sniper stocks.
Get the mini-chassis and no need to bed.

Otherwise, I would look to a McCree or XLR chassis as you can change LOP and cheek rest to suit.

There are other Chassis options out there, but bang for buck it is hard to beat either of these two.

Mcmillian stocks are good.
