Looks nice.

Re: New B&C Stock

Ooooooh! I like that! I wonder how much this weighs? And if it's thinner in the forearm and shorter in the foreend the a REM700 PSS stock(H&S prec)?....

Re: New B&C Stock

This is not a new stock.
It is the BCS1000, so called because it was made for the Bushmaster Counter Sniper rifle.
The Bushmaster was taken over by Remngton Custom Shop, stock changed, price increased dramatically etc... to become the XM3.
I believe the Bushmaster was built by Iron Brigade Armory.

 

[carbinero]

Re: New B&C Stock

I'd like to know how it compares with the Light Tactical, other than the hook. Just based on the pics, the "raised" Monte Carlo part actually looks lower than the cheek rest on the LT.

Wow. Learn something new everyday.

Re: New B&C Stock

Interesting. That looks strikingly similar to my McMillan A1-3, including the bolt removal slot.

I've used these stocks for over two years now...

Better feel than the HS but they are NO Manners/Mcmillan...

Re: New B&C Stock

Nice kills! I go to south Dakota shooting prarie rats all the time.

Is the B&C stock thinner in the grip area then the PSS stock?

Yes it is and the Palm Swell is Smaller than the HS used on the new Senderos as well...

Re: New B&C Stock

I'm probably going to get one of these soon.

Also, elkhuntingguide, it looks like some of your pets are missing their heads.

If a person would drive a tractor over the field you shot all those out of one would lose their fillings in their teeth and in this case perhaps a few teeth.... Holly rodent problem..

Re: New B&C Stock

I have had 1 of these for a year or so.
It most closely resembles a McM A1-3. Actually almost identical sans the finger groove in the McM forend

Re: New B&C Stock

I like that top rifle !

Does anyone know what materials this stock is made of?

finally....an inquiring mind comes forth with the right question....

i shall give you a hint, and put in nautical terms ...it will float,.....oh and would you mind asking any gunsmith worth their salt how to attach sling cups and any other studs to FOAM CORE ?


there...see i played nice

 

[DrDeath]

Re: New B&C Stock

Is that a carbon fiber or aluminum barrel?

Here is a B&C Light Tactical stock that has four flush cup L&R sides F&R and two rails installed Bottom F&R as well as a UNS mount and I've never pulled one out or had a problem with them...

Again it is NO substitute for a Manners/McMillan but IMHO better than an HS and a decent stock for the $$...

 

[_Shay_]

Re: New B&C Stock

Ahh, I see.. I thought I had seen this a while ago... pulled up the iron brigade website and saw it there, as that is where I saw it a bit ago...

For a kid like me that can't afford a Manners or McMillan, seems like a good option.

 

[RHutch]

Re: New B&C Stock

Scott,

I have seen foam in a McM as well...in the ass end...at Gene's shop.

I am relieved to know that if I ever drop my whisper in a body of water, retrieval will be easy so long as the wind aint blowin'

 

[GUNNER75]

Re: New B&C Stock

Boltripper,
Don't hold back on my account, let it rip.

This stock is also available in a long action version. (Just finished tooling before SHOT) The comb height on these are .250" higher than the 2956 Light Tactical (Thumb Hook version).

 

[_Shay_]

Re: New B&C Stock

Ahh, it has a higher comb than the light tactical, that is good.

Re: New B&C Stock compared to a HS

What would make this a better stock than the HS that comes on the Remingtons? I'd be interested in this stock for my 700 Milspec, cannot afford the McM and Manners

agreed. The palm swells on HS stocks are ridiculous. I feel like im trying to hold a grapefruit.

Re: New B&C Stock compared to a HS

Another plus is that they can be found for less money compared to the H&S.

 

[daddy3d]

Re: New B&C Stock compared to a HS

That is a nice stock. I have a question since we are discussing BC stocks, and please don't beat me up guys, but the B&C are priced competetively with the new Choate Tactical stock. I am not referring to the horrid looking ultimate sniper stock. Can anybody provide me some pro's and con's between the Medalist stocks and the Choate Tactical???? I am trying to make a decision on what stock to acquire for my new Remy!. Thanks.

 

[Longrange****]

Re: New B&C Stock compared to a HS

And here I thought I was the only one that hated the massive palm swell on the HS....its just rediculous in my book and the only thing I didnt like about my old PSS 300 Winny.....

 

[chipdog4]

Re: New B&C Stock compared to a HS

Mine came in today. Got a few pictures of it sitting next to an HS Precision and another Bell&Carlson A1

The BC 1000 is noticably heavier than the HS and the Al.
Forgot to weigh them before mounting them all back in, though.

Just from playing with it for a few minutes, I like it a lot.


Didn't get a chance to look real close, but it might need a longer front action screw.

 

[LoneWolfUSMC]

Re: New B&C Stock compared to a HS

I have been running a Light Tactical for awhile now. It's a great stock.

The BCS1000 looks to be even better since it has a higher Comb than the Light Tactical.

As to what's inside......

And a closeup of the actual chassis used in the BCS1000

So as you can see, adding a flush cup is not an issue since you are securing it to aluminum.

Since the actual center of the stock is aluminum instead of foam...wouldn't that make it an aluminum core?

I do love the fact I can take my 700 out of the Light Tactical and bolt it back in without any change in POI.

Look for us to do a more detailed writeup on Bell & Carlson soon. You may also see the BCS1000 stock featured in our upcoming "Budget Precision" build.

I do feel that these stocks are a step up from H&S.

 

[Tbag]

Re: New B&C Stock compared to a HS

So adding a flush cup to the BC would one attemp to thread it and epoxie it?

 

[LoneWolfUSMC]

Re: New B&C Stock compared to a HS

I would.

 

[DrDeath]

Re: New B&C Stock compared to a HS

Well I want a LTR stock but I have not found a used one . So I may go this route...

 

[LoneWolfUSMC]

Re: New B&C Stock compared to a HS

IMHO the B&C Stocks are quite a bit higher quality than the H&S from a LTR.

I just did armorer's inspections on three LTR's this morning. The fit and finish of the two B&C stocks I have are a bit better than the H&S stocks. I have seen the studs pull out of H&S stocks and checking them for cracks is a regular part of the checklist for a 700P.

 

[rookie7]

Re: New B&C Stock compared to a HS

Does anyone have a better price on B & C stocks than stockystocks?

 

[LoneWolfUSMC]

Re: New B&C Stock compared to a HS

I dunno. I have always ordered direct from B&C.

 

[SLVGW360]

Re: New B&C Stock compared to a HS

I spoke to B&C directly hoping to get a better price for an agency purchase and was told that I would get a better price from Stockys.

[chipdog4]

Re: New B&C Stock compared to a HS

Slightly better price and a standard shipping charge of $13.

Shooters Discount

That's where I got mine back in December. They were the only game in town prior to Stockys getting them.
They're fast shippers,and had a good price ($206+ ship,IIRC).

I ordered mine from shootersdiscount. I ordered friday,it shipped yesterday and should be here Thursday.

 

[teflonhunter]

Re: New B&C Stock

Mine came in a few days ago from Shooters Discount , bolted it in yesterday and it feels good. The action screws don't have as much to catch on to. I think I will hunt some longer ones soon. I don't have much experience with composite stocks but this syock is night and day compared to what the rifle came with ( Rem. sps ).Fit is good and barrel channel has more than enough room for SPS barrel. I will probably skim coat the action area after I shoot it awhile.
