    I agree. Can you do a stock for a Mod 70?

    Excuse the ignorance, but why not? What if you're bush hunting? Can't use a brake in that scenario

    Remmag dosnt make enough recoil for most people not to be able to put a few shots through and as they say if your pointing it an an animal you wont feel it.

    I've got a nice bushpig that I use for bush hunting and am confident with to 300m so not overly concerned with that scenario.

    They're long and cumbersome and upset the balance of a decent tops rifle, you need to sacrifice barrel length to balance the rifle.

    @223nut, you are a genius!

    The other option is to get a Movie Rifle(TM). Movie Rifles will kill anything, at any distance, weigh very little, and fold away to nothing. Question is though, can you afford one?
