composite stock for Pre 64 M70?

[Dand]

Since I've been convinced not to trade off my Pre 64 M70 ca 1949-50 (30-06)  - can anybody direct me to a source for a composite stock that will fit the rifle with minimal work?

Moderate price would be nice too but easy fit is more important.

thanks

I realise that it's been several months since you posted, but I was cruising around the board and spotted it today....
I've looked at the McMillan stocks for a long time, and they're good ones, though far from a 'bargain' priced piece.  If they're good enough for Marine snipers, that is, the way they're likely abused and keep working well, they ought to do you well up there.
Take a look, and see what you think.
Otherwise, several stock suppliers make laminates that would hold up well with good sealing and finish.

thanks for the link. I'll check it out.  For some reason I didn't think to check McMillan.  I did check out a few other outfits but most of them want to install the stock and charge me more than it would be to buy a whole new gun.  Some of those outfits are clearly worth the cost but I don't have that kind of $.  I have been rethinking this plan lately as I found Midway offering a pre64 Bell and Carlson stock for a moderate price.  If I hadn't just bought my kid a light wt Savage 30-06, I'd be ordering the stock from Midway tonight.

So Darreld, your timing is good.  Thanks
