im looking at one for my 110 22-250 and one for my 721.whats you guys opinion on them?

A friend of mine just got one for a savage 110. It's really nice. I also have one of their 10/22 stocks and I think it's the best stock for the money.

The recoil pad on their stocks are pretty much the pits.

thanks,the 721 is in pristene condition and i want to keep the original stock in good shape.hell im gonna have it drilled for a scope and use it

.......When I read your first post, I was gonna caution you not to get rid of or bugger up the original stock(s), particularly the 721. I then read this post, and was glad you understood the importance of keeping the original wood intact and good shape.

......Have at it, and good luck with the new stock(s)......

I'm a fan. We have boyds on both of my fiancee's heavy barrel savages, .223 model 12, and a .22lr Mark II. Great fit and comfortable feel. I also have a boyd revolution ambidexterous laminate on one of my 10/22 race guns, and I'm building another 10/22 into a boyd stock right now.

The "recoil pads" on the boyd stocks are really NOT recoil pads, but are really just grip pads. The rubber helps grip on your shoulder to keep the rifle secure and keep your shooting position constant.

I'm 5'10" and a muscular 185lbs, and my fiance is 5'4" and a lean 120lbs, and the stocks are comfortable for both of us to use each rifle interchangeably.

The only fitting I've had to do with any of the boyd stocks I've installed is a little light hand sanding. Never enough work to break out the dremmel, but a little polishing in mag wells, or along the side of the action to relieve a potential pressure point. Literally a drop in installation.
