New stock for .375 H&H

Sig220_Ruger77
I have a Savage 116 .375 H&H that I have grown very fond of. Well, except for the ugly factory synthetic stock. I am looking to replace it with a wood stock, preferably a laminate one. In order to keep fitting down, what are my options that will fit the H&H length action? Thanks,

I just measured the distance of the front and back action screws(middle to middle) and they measured at 8". According to Boyd's website, the Savage long actions are suppose to measure 8". So, besides maybe having to do some minor fitting in the barrel channel and other normal fitting, these Boyd's long action stocks should fit my Savage H&H rifle correct?

    Jon,
    Confirm with Boyd's but, yes, you should be fine with that stock.

    Thanks sir. I called to confirm with Boyd's earlier today and the only person available was one of the ladies who normally just handles the phone orders, etc. She did know a little bit about firearms, but couldn't give me a 100% definite answer. She did give me her info. and told me if the stock didn't fit, I could send it back and explain to them that I had chatted with her. Seem like good people there.

    Now I just have to sell my other H&H so I can afford to customize this one. [:D]

    Try the internet site as you should be able to email a question and get a more in deapth answer. Better yet, Boyds has been offering externally finished stocks for a price. I have one of their JRS classic brown laminate stocks on my 338winmag and it is great. Just don't forget to have it checkered. I think that checkering is very importand on stocks/rifles with heavy recoiling cartridges.

    Got a Boyd's JRS Classic for my Howa .308. I glass bedded it and it shoots better than I do. Boyd's makes quality stocks including many used as OEM stocks by manufacturers.
