Drilling into a HS Precision stock???

[nathantc]

sounds like that could have worked.
My oryx chassis will be here next week. The HS stock is not going to be used. The spigot will be attached to the oryx and the oryx magwell will have to be extended .135" to fit the 3.85 CIP magazine for the 300 PRC. Might keep the HS stock and bottom metal, might sell it. Not sure yet.
Went with the oryx due to the fact i don't care for any other chassis that fits a savage long action. Don't care for much adjustability as i'll leave it in one place once set anyway. I liked the oryx for its simplicity. Nothing should be more rigid than a one piece chunk of aluminum. Didn't really want a chassis, but quickly fell out of love with the HS stock before it ever got any use.

well, main thing is you get what you want. i thought about chasis, but havent ventured it yet, kinda sticking to traditonal feel. i might change later, yes, probally can get more rigid

​suppose this will be my last post on this tread. HS stock and bottom metal will be sold/traded for temporary glass (swfa temp mocked up) Oryx will be getting sent off to a machine shop to have the magwell opened up .135" for the 3.85 CIP 300PRC magazine and bored for the bipod spigot. Black panels will be ordered as well. LOVE the oryx compared to every other chassis i put in my hands. very comfortable. RIFLE IS HUGE

Best decision i've made with this rifle was ditching the HS Precision stock. Far more comfortable to shoulder, far more rigid. That is all.. now ill let this tread die.
