Hi,

I'm looking at a Manners fiberglass stock that's inlet, but not bedded for a Stiller Tac 338, which uses the same DBM (Badger M5 CIP) as does the Seekins cut Defiance Deviant.

Anyone ever fit a Deviant LA into a Stiller Tac 338 stock? I'm guessing the recoil lug inlet, ejection port waterline and bolt release relief are the biggest concerns as the action screw spacing are the same between both actions. The stiller action body is 0.4xxx" longer, so the recoil lug inlet would need to move back. And anything else I didn't consider...

Thanks,
Scott
