Yes that's right. My M700 ADL .270 Tupperware Special is going to get a new stock and a name change. I plan to use what I have learned refurbishing milsurp wood and apply it to the Special. I am hoping to find an 90-95% inletted and unfinished piece of walnut or ?
I plan to go a step up in the gunstock food chain, bypass Boyds and go for a higher quality stock. I did some searching and found a couple of companies that have machine inletted stock in various grades of wood quality.
These two companies interest me at the moment.

Are these companies good to do business with? Any other companies I should take a look at?
This is stage one of a three stage project. Stage two is a quality 6x fixed scope. Stage three is to shoot the (insert expletive here) out of the factory barrel and get a better quality barrel.
The Imperial Red-Headed Scorpio is on-board with this project and will be assisting with some of the financing. This means a proper stock fitting and a better quality of wood if the price is right. This also means there won't be any griping when there is a gun all torn apart on a card table in the living room.
Thanks
