Any one know of anyone making stocks for the anschutz 1727? Fortner action.

I don't really like the complete model that is in stock as it has the longer barrel and no threaded end, but can't seem to find anyone making stocks. I know GRS has supplied them, but it seems that they were still worked by someone on Anschutz end before mounting with the action, as they don't show an inlet for the 1727.

Not interested in the 1827, as that model seems to be the biathlon model, and has limited scope mounting options.

From all the reading and research that I have done it seems the 1913,1907 would be the closest match of action, with minimal rework for the fortner bolt movement and the recoil lug. The 1727 lug seems to be closer to the barrel and the other closer to the trigger. I think that would be minimal work, and a good glass bedding would solve any wood work. Does anyone happen to have these models, I know a LOOOONG shot, and can confirm?
 
1927 stock, f27 was available in br-50 stock. Check with Anschutz North America in the states, they have a custom shop.
 
What are you looking for?

The Anschütz 1827F has basically no scope mounting options as it only has the 11mm rail for a sight (nothing in front of the chamber). The 1913/1907 stocks would need to have inletting and modifying for the magazine well.

"Essentially" a (1827F) Fortner action will fit on a traditional 54-Match (repeater) action footprint. Assuming a 1727F uses the same footprint, you can go from there.
 
Thanks for all the contributions.

Yea those canyon creek stocks are fabulous. I checked them out already, and at or over $2K US just for the blank, before the work begins is just a little too much for this guy. Would hat to put a scratch into it.

I'll have to get in touch with Nordique. Was on their site just looking and seeing what they had.

Was on rimfire central as well, and was able to dig up some more info there as well.

Thanks again guys.

A scope can be easily mounted on an Anschutz 1827F the same ways they can be mounted on pre-1964 Anschutz Match 54 single shot models. I've had a few of these older models and they have dovetails on the rear part of the receiver only. Scope mounting hasn't been an issue.

To be clear, while the 1827F barreled action will fit a 54 match repeater footprint (such as a 54.18 MSR or a very rare 1907 R), it's not a straight drop in and such a stock requires modification. The 1827 will not fit on a 54 sporterrepeater stock (such as a 142x or 171x).
 
If you can send me the action for measurement and fitment i can make almost anything your heart desires. Wood and metal CNC machines at my disposal!
 
Man the feed back has been awesome.

Jahnj0584 I might just take you up on that offer, but running another possibility right now. Its always hard to find someone wanting to spend the time and effort to make these things fit just right especially knowing this is a one off custom.

I have been leaning towards the tesro evolution 10 pro alum chassis, but realize it will require some work. I reached out to Tesro earlier, and finally have a reply, so will pursue that option right now and see where it leads.

I had looked at Anschutz North America, but figured it would be a pain to purchase there and get the rifle to Canada, so just leaving that for now.

I run an XLR magnesium chassis for my hunting rifle, so I always wanted the 1710 in the XLR chassis when I saw them a few years back. Now the fortner action has been growing on me, but the chassis is here to stay in my mind.

I was convincing myself to go wood, as I figured it would be easier to work on it myself, but just not finding stock of ones to even manipulate, much less inleted for the 1727. We shall see where this alum chassis on the tesro 10 pro plays out and then go from there.

Thanks again for all the insights.
 
Beware of any stock intended for a 1827F. the action screws of the 1727F series are not in the same place as those of the 1827F so the stock holes will not line up.

I know from personal experience. I once tried to mount a 1827F barreled action into a 1727F stock so i could take the 1827F gopher hunting but it would not fit, the action screws and holes would not line up.

That's very good to know, Did you happen to see if the 1827 and 1927 are interchangeable?
 
Below is a from-the-side and a from-below comparison of the Anschutz 19xx and 1827F and 1927F receivers.

While the Fortner receivers are quite similar, they are a little different in the "tang" area.

The dimensions of the 1727 receiver are shown further below.

For the 1827 action.
- There's always the option of going with a Osuma/Contessa/Rusan Roll-off Mount

Ok. That's fair in that a cantilever style mount could be used. Albeit eye relief adjustability and ability to single shot load might be limited after. That of course may not be a huge priority as it would be in actual biathlon.

In addition to the various stock maker options already mentioned, if anyone wants to throw some love towards a Canadian biathlon stock maker (NCR), check out BiathlonStocks(dot)com
He has couple designs of his own (largely for clubs) and can also make complete custom stocks of whatever design at very reasonable prices (basically the same price or cheaper than you'd pay for European brand standard designs).
