I'm considering picking up a local used 40-X in 7.62 NATO, and I'd like to be able to drop it in a short action HS M24 stock I have with the adjustable LOP and M24 contour barrel channel. I will of course keep the original stock it comes with safe, and it'll go back in it if I ever sell. I've searched ever post on the subject I can find, and I can't find anyone definitely confirming if the Rem custom shop used the M40/24 contour. The shop won't allow me to test the fit, which I get. I appreciate any input.

I've owned some beefy barreled 40X custom shop rifles. They mostly used Hart bbls. But one stamped 7.62 NATO is probably a 40XCS profile which means cross course position match. Do what reubenski said above and micrometer the profile. This is HS Precision bbl channel specs
