Jon lynn,

Kirby Allen of APS made me a 270 Allen Mag and said that he found a Bell & Carlson Carbelite stock at a good price and 'thought' it would be stiff enough for the long heavy 30" barrel.

The rifel shot great with the stock. However, it was a bit light on the front end and I felt that it flexed too much for some field situations. It bent pretty easily when preloading the bipod.

Hoever, I am sure that for a sporter weight barrel the Bell & Carlson Carbelite would be just fine.

Nevertheless I reconfigured the original stock to make it more long range worthy from the prone position and bipod.

Here's how it ended up. (There's a Bell & Carlson Carbelite stock in there somewhere )
