The 7-Mag isn't classed as a heavy recoiling gun so most all of the maples and walnuts will do nicely.

Also Cherry and Mesquite will do as well.......most any hardwood for that matter.....

Some of the most overlooked stocks are Maple such as shellflame, Myrtle and birdseye......for those that like the whitewood.

Stock blanks run from about $100 to over $1,500 and the general factor in cost is appearance.
