I have purchased a strange bird indeed. This is a McM Pre-64 Monte Carlo inletted for a Remington 700 long action. But it is not inletted for Remmy bottom metal. I spoke with Heather at McM, and she suggested that someone might have been going for a M40-A1-ish build and inletted for the modified Winnie bottom metal. But I'm thinking not as it is a long action. Would one of you gunsmithing gurus put your seasoned eye upon this inletting and give me some guidance as to go about getting functional bottom metal for this stock? Maybe Badger? Williams? How could I find this out with certainty?

I was hoping that you were right, but it is not Williams...dangit.
