Hey guys. I am looking for a new stock for my remington 700 with a 26" bull barrel and chambered in 308. Right now it has a boyd's stock on it and will hold at best 1"-1 1/2" groups at 100 yards with hand loads. The current stock has not been bedded or free floated. It is also an ADL.
I have thought about bedding the rifle but I have no idea how to do that and do not know any gunsmiths around here that do that sort of thing. I will be using this for high power matches and some matches where I will have to move quickly to new shooting positions. I am in shape but not looking to lug around a 20+ pound rifle.
I am not really wanting to spend more than $350 -$400 but I figure with that amount I should be able to get something that will get those groups down.
Any help would be much appreciated.
