I would say no. Unless you wanted to remove the extra material. Dale

As long as it is a stock designed for a heavy barrel short action with floor plate - such as an old BDL Varmint Special , the current VLS laminated or one of the HS Precision series. If it is a stock with a sporter profile barrel channel you will have to do as Dale mentions and remove a lot of extra material in the barrel channel.

Dale, 

That picture you have on your post, Is that the new SPS Varmint from Remington?
