My Sako's full length oiled walnut stock is just too nice and delicate for the field. I want to swap it out for a quality synthetic stock. Where to find them? Full length is not necessary.
Any aftermarket synthetic stocks that fit a Sako 85 Bavarian Carbine?

If you're not willing to hunt with a walnut stock you may be best off selling the rifle and buying a Sako Black Bear. Nice and short like the Bavarian carbine, but with even better iron sights, and a synthetic stock. Plus it costs less so you'd probably come out better off financially than if you just bought a McMillan stock and put it on your current carbine.

Here's the deal... My Bavarian shoots like a dream, and I'm not parting with something that works. I like the profile of its barrel and the sights it currently has. This one was my safe queen that I took to the range for the first time on Sunday. I was actually conteplating selling it. Glad I didn't.

Yeah... it's looking like the walnut will be getting some "character"
