I like the stock, but have my heart set on a McMillan A5 in GAP Camo. I want a stock that is going to allow me to order it, open the package, and install the action/barrel with minimal of work done. If I really start getting into long range, then I would eventually start getting stuff done. Bedding, pillars, barrel, etc. Is this going to be possible without doing any bedding or whatever else people do? Stockys told me it would be a drop in, with possibly minor work fitting the bottom metal kit. If that is the case, can I fit the bottom metal carefully with a dremel?

EDIT: My other idea, which I like as well,is dropping it into an Accuracy International stock, probably a 1.0 or 2.0.
