firstcoueswas80 Report post Posted November 28, 2009 And this is how it came... Sent my beloved, accurate 270 wsm into the smith, because of an issue. This is how it came. Not sure if it is his fault, or UPS', but thank god it was insured! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Str8Shot Report post Posted November 28, 2009 You probably have it all picked out too .... I can say though my dad has one of Harry Lawsons early thumbhole stocks over 30+ years old on his 270 (someday will be mine) and to me I don't think anything new could replace that beutiful creation .... But Mcmillan is the right avenue to go Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Coues Sniper Report post Posted November 28, 2009 I'd check out Manners Stocks Manners are great stocks, but if it's free money I'd go with the McMillan But the Manners thumbhole is nice if you're going to stay that route. Bitter sweet problem to have buddy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
