It didn't link me to the right picture. Try right clinking and selecting "copy image url" and then post it within the tags.

Code: Select all

So it would look like this before posting:

When you click post it would look like this:

Perfect! Glad I could help.......but I have no idea what that is. Looks like it could taking 1911 grips.

zephyp is very probably correct.
Compared to some .22 precision target rifles that are in the $2000-$4000 range they are inexpensive.
The stocks are not as adjustable as some.

I suspect a very low trigger pressure trigger group, custom barrel, and a re-worked action.

I've asked your question of people that probably know but it may take a while to get an answer.

OK, I got some responses quicker than I thought I would.

I posted your question on the rimfirecentral.com forums in the Superstock Bolt Actions forum:
http://www.rimfirecentral.com/forums/sh ... ost3562053

The action has been tentatively identified as a Remington 40x, which I know is a very common action used to build up a precision .22 target rifle.
The stock has been, again tentatively, identified as a PUG.

Here are some quotes:
The stock looks like an old PUG. I used to see them advertised in precision shooting in the nineties. They were action specific, it clamped the receiver into the stock. The PUG took grips from a 1911 pistol. The rifles are Remington 700s or 700 clones.
I believe PUG company is gone but someone may still make the design.
Note: from http://www.surplusrifle.com/shooting/40 ... /index.asp
The Remington 40X was, and is, a pure match rifle. During the mid 50’s, Remington developed the 40X based on a beefed up single shot bolt action. It was styled after and shared many parts with the Remington 722 at first and later the Remington 700.

ever seen or used an aluminum Pug rifle stock?

Brownell's sold them a few years ago. They were all machined aluminum, had a 1911 style grip, and had a split rail type fore-end. A quick internet search found nothing. They look really cool and I wanted one for my savage 112BVSS

RFC is great! The guys over there have saved me more than a few times but I disassemble something a little to far.
