I’ve got a model 70 and I’d like to replace the standard stock with a nice piece of walnut. I’m in Illinois - having a heck of a time finding a stock maker, would prefer a maker who could source the walnut and help me avoid making mistakes. Anyone have stock maker recommendations or best practices for acquiring a blank and turning it into a stock?
 
I got a guy for you... he built me a very nice 35 Whelen on a Springfield action. Let me dig up his number and send some pics of my rifle. He's also very reasonable considering the work that goes into stockmaking.

Please post the pictures.

I have not posted any items for sale on this forum and will not every put anything for sale. My account was hacked and I've worked with the admin to get things shut down.

Hello,
I might be able to help you out depending on how many you need. I could probably spare 50-75 .285g A-Frames. They are factory pulls that look like new. Let me know if you are still looking,
Thanks,
Gary
