I have My almost all H&R M14 type in a Walnut H&R stock w/strong firing proof and crisp DAS,but recently tried it in a Winchester Big Red Birch and now I don't know what to do.I like it to look all service Rifle-ee,but that Birch is way thicker and feels better in the hand.I do have some Winchester parts for a future build,but I'm torn with using it now.What do You think?

I think that you had better get busy and build the second one and use both stocks.

Whos receiver(s) have you been using? I was going to go with Fulton for my build.

My Receiver is unmarked by a maker,but research showed it was made as part of a group buy for Macks Guns,by Armscorp circa 1988,or '89

If I ever do a build I'm probably going to go LRB. 7.62 will be my second choice.
