Savage Thumbhole Varmint Stock Pillar Bedded Short Action 10/12/14/16 with 12 FV barrel channel... Designed for accuracy in structure as well as shootability, this graceful riflestock fits modern short action Savage Rifles. "Modern" meaning rifles that have the Center Feed (CF) magazine and stock screw spacing of 4.41". Rifles with or without the Accu-Trigger will fit as long as their stock screw spacing is 4.41" (Older Stagger Feed magazine rifles have 4.27" screw spacing and will NOT fit this stock). The thumbhole styling flows into a graceful pistol grip and raised cheek rest that are beautiful as well as extremely comfortable. The forend is wide for solid benchrest shooting and, its ventilated to keep as cool as possible. A stiff rubber recoil pad contributes to accuracy. Swivel studs are included and we mount two on the forend for convenience with bipod mounting. Piller Bedding and Other Hardware: These stocks come with bedding pillars included and installed. Pillar bedding gives the most rigid, accuracy enhancing connection to riflestocks on bolt action rifles. Other hardware needed are your original trigger guard and mounting screws. These are not included with this stock because its designed to use the ones from your original stock. Barrel Channelled to Fit 12FV Barrel Contour - These stocks come with the barrel channel cut to fit a factory Savage 12FV barrel contour. This is the same as our EABCO Savage Accuracy Barrels contour. It's a heavy varmint style that contours to .800" at the muzzle. This barrel channel fits barrels that size or smaller without any modifications. Barrels with a wider contour will need to have the barrel channel widened (Call... We can do this for you).
