Removing Stock?

[parson48]

I recently bought an Elite Stalker 30-06 stainless from Dick's ($179). I'm wanting to do a camo paint job on the black plastic, but can't tell exactly what kind of bolt is holding the stock on (old eyes!).

It kinda looks like a big cap screw way down in there. Does anyone here know for sure what I need to remove this?

By the way, I haven't shot it yet, but the reports on the Bergara barrels are mostly good.

If it is like the optima elite this link will give you the info you need.

Thanks, Magnum_A5, that's exactly what I needed!

I ended up cutting a piece, approx. 3/4", off of a 6mm hex wrench, snugged it into a 6mm socket with a piece of masking tape, used a socket extension and universal joint, and got the stock removed with no problem.

Thats great! Glad it worked out for you. Hope you have great success with your new addition.
