Hey guys, I have a synthetic stocked Remington 700 ADL chambered in .30-06 that I primarily use for hunting deer. I want to replace the current stock with an aluminum bedding block synthetic stock, and then free float the barrel. I have looked at Boyd's, Stocky's, H.S. Precision, Hogue, McMillan, and Bell and Carlson so far. The lower end seems to hover around $300, but all available stocks seem to be for either ADL short actions or BDL models.
Long action hunting type ADL stocks just don't seem to be available, so I may have to convert from ADL to BDL. I know the ADL to BDL conversion kit runs about $150 at Brownell's. That would push the total up to around $450 or more. I absolutely love this rifle and have taken a ton of deer with it, not to mention numerous coyotes, bobcats and other predators.
The first question is, will it be worth the expense of doing so? If so, does anyone have recommendations on brands or models of replacement stocks that will meet my requirements?
