Choate Machine and Tool... go to their website and order one. ;)
It's about $60 shipped for the stock and matching forearm. The stock by itself is a little over $30 bucks.
Hope this helps.

Choate only shows the old low comb stock(conventional) on their website, best call H&R and see it they have any more or buy one in the classifieds, I think the old style part number was FR02700.

I had checked Choate.  I have a Handi Grip on my 44 trapper with a older styled forend.  I have gotten my hands on an AAC Handi and liked it, but there is no way that stock will work for me.  So I am looking at options.  I have the standard synthetic stock (my 44 mag trapper started as a standard synthetic 45-70).  That wouldn't cost me anything, but I want something better suited for scoped use.

How was the old synthetic MC stock different from the one they sell now?  I bought one from Midway last month and it's about as high as the pallet word MC stock on my .25-06...

The new style is certainly a possibility.  What I don't like is how thin the top of the stock feels on my cheek, and in general it doesn't feel as solid as the older one does. That said, its the 300 Blk recoil wouldn't be a factor.
