Stocky's stock for Savage rifles

Anyone have a Stocky's sporter stock on a Savage? If so I'd love to see some pics.

I managed to wrangle a vintage 110L .270 with side-button detachable magazine into a stockys sporter stock last year. Took a bit of work since they don't actually make their stock to fit this system.

The rifle sits at 7lb, 12oz as shown.

Forend is short, like 3" shorter than the wood stock it replaced. And with the lighter weight, it is more muzzle-heavy than previously. Eventually a new barrel with lighter profile will help balance it out again.

It's had a good 55 years at current length....and besides it can't turn into a 280ai that way. That or a faster-twist 270 is possible with a new tube.
