ive looked into a few BC stocks... nothing overboard though. Just looking mainly for a recoil reducing stock that feels better then the stock. so i can shoot tighter groups and shoot longer!

billy · 05-09-2008, 11:42 PM

fill the butt of the factory stock with lead shot.
it added about 9 lbs. to the weight of my rifle.
what recoil?

you wont want to carry it anywhere though!

jv101 · 05-10-2008, 12:05 AM

lol.. its not like i shoot standing up lol. so that doesnt really matter... and it will probably be as heavy as our BAR (which is like 22ish lbs) so it cant be that bad lol

where can i pick up some of this lead shot?

I think that you need more info. Something doesn't sound right.

Is the reason due to the new trigger?

jv101 · 05-11-2008, 09:02 PM

not sure if it has anything to do w/ the trigger, i might do the lead shot in the stock and then pick up a limbsaver see if that does anything! which it should lol. maybe it will fell like a 22 lol

Did you ever measure the action screw distance to see which action you have?

If you are wanting a Choate stock they make them for BOTH bolt spacing in short action, as well as a long action. They are very nice stocks and they do reduce felt recoil. They are heavy, gun will be about 11-13 lbs including scope.

Just make sure you tell them what the bolt spacing is when you order it.

You can also look on Savage Shooters. I am a regular member there and there is alot of info, pretty much everything you ever wanted to know about a Savage.

just got an email back from the place toolman told me to email, Here is the response:

Subject: RE: Savage 10FP

The new guns do have a different hole spacing and we do not currently
have a stock to fit them. For the moment there just isn't anything
available that I know of. Thanks for writing.

another note my mom picked me up a limbsaver recoil pad today! so that should help to. next will be the lead shot (if i cant find a new stock, and if the recoil pad just isnt enough)

pdog06 · 05-13-2008, 05:43 PM

I am almost positive that Choate DOES make their ultimate sniper and ultimate varmint for both of the short action screw spacings!!! I was told that they make it for the newer ones, it is just not updated on their website yet. Maybe not, but it is worth the phone call.

Give Choate a call and ask them, since that is the one you're looking at anyway.
Their number is 1-501-724-6193. Open from 8am-330pm cst.

If not, you could buy the one for the older style action and just redrill and pillar the front action screw to fit yours. I've seen it done on other style stocks, and that's what I'm considering doing on the one I want.

i dont understand.
i have a savage 10-fp AND I HAVE PUT A CHOATE STOCK ON IT!!!!!!!!!!!!
i bought mine about 6 months ago.
what is the problem?

they make short action/long action /right hand /left hand .

the choate website tells you to measure those holes.
so do it and you will know which to order!

do you own a tape measure?
use it.

jv101 · 05-13-2008, 07:26 PM

lol yeh i own a tape measure!. I am going to try the limbsaver out and possibly yhe lead shot before i drop the money on a new stock!

Less recoil? You're talking to somebody that just bought a Mosin Nagant M44 AND a Steyr M95. I LOVE recoil!
Now don't bother me, I have to go ice down my shoulder.
