I have a Model 70 that I dropped a few years back and cracked the stock. I slipped on some wet rocks while hunting. I was so mad! Anyway, I glued and pinned it and it works fine, but I've always wanted to replace the stock with something nicer. The rifle in question is a late 70's/early 80's pre USRA XTR in .25-06. It was the first rifle that was "mine" after my dad gave it to me.
While looking through the CDNN catalog today, I noticed they have some pretty nice factory stocks, but the one I want is listed as only fitting 2002 and later rifles. So far the reading I have done seems to indicate the the only difference the bottom metal, is that right? My rifle has a blind mag, hence no bottom metal all besides the trigger guard.
Can I buy a post 2002 hinged floor plate and trigger guard, and make my rifle work with this stock?
