i have a friend, (yea, i have a friend:)that had a bullbarrel put on his rem.700 in 25-06, but used the factory stock. it looks funny with the big barrel and a slim stock. it seems to shoot good, the gunsmith did a nice job,it will hold a 1/2" at 200yrds. it has been beded w/ blocks. but i woundering it a thicker, heavier stock would preform better, or is it just a looks item?????

    Mustang,1/2"at 200 yrds. I dont think I would be trying to fix that.Don't care if it is dog ugly.

    Your friend has the most perfect chambered rifle to hunt varmints with that has ever been devised!! Who gives a crap about what they appear to be if the end result is DEVASTATION!! (Consistently) And I think if he's getting .5 groups at 200 yds. he can cause some serious DEVASTATION!! GHD

    I personally think that guns like that look pretty and unique. Because I don't think anyone manufactures a rifle like that, in my book, it makes it special. Something I would be proud to lug around. Tell your friend if he don't like it, I'll trade him something for it...
