Bell & Carlson Medalist stock
-
I know the pad is a Pachmayr Decelerator but I don't know the model number.
-
It's a grind to fit pad.

I just wanted to let everyone know that we will have a consistent supply of these starting next week.
With this stock, is there enough “meat” in the fore-end to open the barrel channel up for a varmint contour barrel?
-
Yes there is enough room to fit a varmint barrel, I have seen 2 of them done.

Where did you see this done? B and C says no way. Got a link or pics?

Look at the pic I posted on the first page, there is plenty of room to be opened up for a standard varmint barrel. I think B&C just don't want their stocks to be modified by us and as far as I know they don't offer this as a option if you buy direct from them.

Friend of mine has done 2 of them for varmint barrels, B&C only offers it for the T3 Lite, if I remember right the forearm is 1 1/4″ wide.

it looks like a standard t3,right? which B&C stock model is it?
-
The gun is the Tikka T3 Lite Stainless. The model of the stock the B&C Medalist.

I contacted B&C about buying a new pad. They gave me a return authorization to have it replaced under warrantee. WHOOHOO!!
-
Sent the stock back to B&C for the recoil pad repair/replace. I asked how much to add a second swivel stud.
Never heard back, but the stock returned 10 days after I sent it in. New recoil pad, new paint finish, and new stud. No charge 🙂
I noticed when I disassembled it that the rear most part of the action is compressing the stock before it contacts the aluminum bed. I'm going to sand it down slightly before re-assembly.

T3 Lite Stainless 7mm-08, B&C Medalist.
Shoots about the same before the swap as after.
I got the stock as a gift. I wouldn't have bought one otherwise.
