Savage 10 FP in .308 WIN for my bolt rifle. At least that's what I'll be using! Will be camo wrapped with self clinging USMC digital camo tape when in the field. I like the black look to it so I'm not going to permanently alter it when there is choices of a ghillie wrap or self cling cammo wrap.

I love that! How do you like that Choate stock? I've eyeballed it for a while now! Also, looks like you've got a Mueller scope & a 20" barrel on that 10 FP? Is that right? You can see my Savage 10 FP above, also w/ a Mueller scope.

Hoskins,
I really like the Choate Varmint stock. It is rock solid and just feels great when you shoulder it. You are correct, it has a 20" barrel and a Mueller APT scope. I might swap the scope from my 22-250 and .308. It is a 8.5-25x44, little too much for the 22-250 and using it on coyotes. I don't know, I usually take my AR for that anyway. I will be changing the stock on the 12fv 22-250 to either another Choate Varmint or a Thumbhole laminate like whats on my Savage 22 mag.

I've got the Mueller 4x1650mm w/ Illuminated (turn on) Mil Dot reticle. I bought it right after my wife & son got me the Savage 10FP. It's got to do for now seeing how I dropped a decent amount of $ into the rifle & all the other accessories. Nothing crazy in regards to $, but I didn't feel like putting anymore dent onto my bank acct. The next upgrades will most likely be the Choate Stock and a higher grade glass...the Mueller is great but I know that if I upgrade the glass then I can get my end result out of the rifle and that is for it to be a 1000 yard shooter. What is the difference between the Choate Varmit and the Choate Ultimate Sniper stocks?
Again, you got some sweet guns brother! All my other guns are plain Winchester Model 70's (Ranger in 7mm REM MAG, Westener in 30.06, & a 1966 MOD 70 in .243). Got a Marlin 444ss, Marlin 917v in .17HMR, Marlin 60s in .22lr, Mossberg 835...535...Maverick 88 in 12 GA, Mossberg 500 x2 in 20GA, an old Winchester MOD 37a .410 single shot, DANG!!!! Tired of typing now...I'll just post pics of them all when I get a chance and include the rest!!!
I got to say one of my prized possessions is a rifle my dad gave me of his and one that I have drooled over for years...his Anschutz 164 Sporter that he got back in the 70's...it was imported by Savage back then. Talk about a .22lr that can knock a gnat off of a fly's A*S!

Ok, these aren't custom. But I just figured out the whole pic thing for myself and consequently don't have many pics. But here are a few that I've killed a couple coyotes with.
Top one is a 10FP in .223 with a Redfield Revolution 3x9 with the Accu-Range Ret.
Bottom one is a Stevens 200 in .223 with a Bushnell Elite 3200 3x10 Duplex Ret.
They really aren't shiny at all! The flash from the camera made it look like they are though.

Eagle industries. They dont have the rifle stock pad on the website by mistake. Called last week and ordered the rifle version and they had 200 in stock. Here is a link to the shotgun version.
