I'm thinking about this chassis, but wanted to get some firsthand feedback from someone with this set-up. Wanted to confirm that the .308 Remington 700 5r Milspec is a drop-in fit. My 5r is right-handed, but I shoot lefty. Will this chassis function just as using a left hand trigger actuation?

Thanks for any input.
 
I have the Bell & Carlson Tactical Medalist Style 5 Stock

I have the Bell & Carlson Tactical Medalist Style 5 Stock and I have a Remington 5 R Milspec. I don't have the 5R in that stock. I have a .308 SPS Varmint in that stock.
I've put 3 hunting rifles and my varmint in B&C stocks. I really like them for the price.
They are drop-in, but you need to sand them for a good fit. I've sanded all 4 stocks I put on. Both my rifles have been bedded in there stocks. I check with calipers and barrel diameters are close. With sanding you should be fine.

I shoot right handed, I checked left handed and don't think I would have problem shooting left handed if i wanted.

I can recommend this stock.
