308 CIL 950 ' stock options '

[jennis]

Looking to replace the stock on a CIL 950 ( box magazine ) 308 , would any of the tupperware stocks from savage/stevens fit the bill or where would be a good place to look , the Internet searches have giving me nothing thus far.....

It is a stock Savage but note that is is the short action, not the long. In those days both were made.

according to the numrich no 18, a cil 950 c or d = savage 110 c or d- this is WHY we keep the old numrich catalogues- it's in the store brand to manufacturer index, now at the back - used to be at the front

I thought they termed it a ' medium action ' , which makes no sense to me

measure the action screws, centre to centre- the short is 4.275, the long is 5.062- i don't beleive there is a medium- models b, c,d, e, j&k are all short action( caliber probably varies with model letter)
the long action also uses a blind magazine instead of the detachable box mag- if you specify when ordering that THIS IS A C MODEL, you should be alright and also give the screw spacing

It is a savage 110 action they used one action length for all calibers 243, 30-06 and mag.cal. it will have the button release on the side .you need a savage 110 stock made from the 70's -mid 90's it will work prefect .

Thanks guys

Measure the screw spacing to be sure.
Some 950s were made on the old "short" action, which is not the same as any current action.

I tried to cross reference with the list of rifles supplied by 'boyd stocks' to no avail

savage never made a short action until recently they were like the Winchester model 70's when in the 90's they started making a med length action. the cil 950 is from the late 60's early to 70's.
