Here is a heads up on anyone thinking about buying a Savage LRPV HS Precision stock for an upgrade. Factory Savage ML-II synthetic trigger guard won't work and longer bolts are a must! Minor set-backs for a great stock!  |

check the action hole spacing on the new stock to make sure its the same as your MLII, still useable if not but a little more work,,

4.4" spacing on both with 2.2" to 3rd screw. I know not idea location but still has to be an improvement. ;D

Maybe not. I tired to modify the ML-II trigger guard to fit the LRPV stock but that was a failed attempt. So now I am going to get in touch with Savage and check on getting a trigger guard for the LRPV stock or find out interchangeability of other guards.

Did you find a supplier that is carrying the HS stocks now?
I looked for quite a while, and no one had them.
Ended up going with a Whidden 3 post aluminum bed that I'm dropping into a aftermarket laminate stock.

Earnhardt, It is a pull off from the production Savage Model 12 Long Range Precision Varminter. HS supplies the stock for that model. *Note has 4.4" screw spacing.

But I'm building a SML based on the Savage target action. I wanted to buy the HS LRPV stock, but it was on back order til at least mid Dec. everywhere I checked. |

Oh my bad sir. I posted on Long Range and a guy contacted me. So I lucked out I guess.
