Bansner/Wildcat stocks question
- Thread starter SuperCub
- Start date
I have a couple Wildcats, they are light, affordable, and I can go and get one in person, no waits. But I dont think his 700 stocks have a cheek piece...could be wrong havent bought one in a couple years. If you are trying to save weight, I know he inletted a few model 7 stocks for the 700's.
We have <20oz stocks in a few different designs. GP Hunter, Long Range Hunter, Dak 97, Dak 76, Dak 76 Junior, Dak Predator, Dak Kiss, RCI Silhouette right, RCI Silhouette left, RCI Thmbhole and perhaps a few I don't remember right now. Pad not included in weight, weight after inletting.
I looked at you sight and found that the hunting stocks weighed 3lb 2oz. I would be interested in a lighter one if you stock them.Ian Robertson said:

Ian, do you have inletting programs for Winchester pre-64 Model 70's? and is the Dakota 76 pattern compatible ?
What level of recoil will you guarantee with a 20 oz blank ?
What is the cost of a inletted blank with the molded in color ?
Thanks

I don't know what Ian will guarantee for a recoil level with a 20 .oz blank, but I will guarantee you will feel the recoil with a 20 .oz stock
One reason a target rifle is so heavy is to help tame the recoil. Do you want to lug around a heavy rifle in order to get lighter recoil. Or a light rifle and get kicked when you shoot it.
Myself, I like the feel of a heavier rifle, but then again I have never felt the recoil when shooting a deer, bear or moose.
Ian Robertson said:
How much extra is inletting ? and what actions and barrel contours do you have programs for (I assume you CNC these like a McMillan)
What is delivery time for a hunting rifle pattern, fully inletted, no pad or paint?
Thanks
Inletting is 135 and it is done cnc. We have most actions but definately not all and some we can inlet without the action but can not do bolt notch etc without the action. We are fairly caught up from spring right now so 4 - 8 weeks and our stocks are not painted as standard.
