This is my new rem 700 .308. I blue printed the action, put a Kriger heavy barrel on it customized the Bell and Carlson stock, for the barre and put some finger groves in it. and it shoots great. My friend and I are in Ocotillo wells CA area shooting this past weekend, lots of fun.
Re: New 308
Nice grip. How did you put the finger grooves in it and refinish that area?

Re: New 308
I used a 1/2 inch barrel grinder to cut most of the finger groves and then fished them by hand so they would be a good fit to my fingers. The stock is just a poor cast resin system with fiber glass chop in it. It is very easy to work with.
A little more hand sanding and then clean up, and painted it with flat black paint.
let me know if that helps?

Re: New 308
Nice work, I have the same stock and what you did with the grip looks good.

Im struggling trying to figure out how to post pics, it will work for me then it won't. So far this has been the toughest site for me to figure out. I'm not the worst on a computer but I'm not good enough for this site...
