I have a custom barreled dumoulin Mauser that shoots rediculously well. The stock is a hogue, and I do not like the swoop of the traditional stock. Any ideas for a stock with a vertical grip? Worst case, I'll build a wood one, but what do you know?

Richards Microfit and Boyds both do pretty nice laminate stocks.

B&C and Choate both do Mauser stocks, but in more "hunting" style not tactical. I've never used one or felt one, but Archangel is now doing a tactical Mauser stock. Much like the ones they did for the Mosin-Nagant.
 
I think Old Western Scrounger still has the PH single shot stocks. (haven't looked to verify)
Could have it opened up for the triggerguard/box magazine.
 
I ended up going the Boyds route. I pillar bedded the rear action screw with the steel pillar tube from an old military stock I had laying around. I opened up the barrel channel with dowels and sandpaper (huge pain in the butt) and then bedded the action to it with marine JB-Weld (marine-tex was too hard to find around here)

Its currently wearing a Shilen barrel and is chambered in 7mm RM and it shoots pretty damn well. I will eventually snag a PTG bottom metal and have it inletted to allow me to run AI pattern mags.

Heres a photo of the original mock-up with the new stock, before I did all the work.

Yes they do. I’m being dumb, I just bought one. And, I’m in the process of converting it to a repeater. I wasn’t remembering you had also thought about converting the rifle to a C3.
 
Boyds varmint adjustable cheeck. Have to open barrel channel up on bigger barrels. 5 shot group at 100 yards shoot this rifle at 1000 alot and shoots lights out with stock. I found it to be the best and cheapest route for mauser 98
