I have 3 Boyd's stocks. One is a Boyds Evolution stock on a 10/22, LOVE it. It's a pretty spacey looking baracuda style skeleton stock, absolutely love it. The 2nd is on a Savage Mark II BSEV .22lr, the exact same stock, different inletting.
The third is a featherweight thumbhole on a Ruger M77 Mark II .30-06. A horse fell on me a few years ago and broke my factory stock, so I needed a quick, cheap replacement, and I've been really happy with this Boyd's stock. Naturally I had to do some finishing inletting, especially to pillarblock and glass bed the action, but that's a given for any rifle stock.
I'm a big fan of thumbhole stocks. They're not as comfortable slung over your shoulder, but they certainly do point more naturally.
