For a reason or another, there is now quite many Mosin army surplus sportting stocks for sale here in finland. Some of them are even walnut. In this picture is stock for model TAK 85. Notice that the whole action is floating (no contact to stock) and so it need a special bushing (picture aattched) round the barrel which attach the whole action to stock.
This kind of rifle is very accurate when properly built.
Igorrock, how much is the TKIV 85 stock?
This style of stock (barrel clamped, action free) was popular with some bench rest shooters in Canada back in the late 60's, early 70's. The design died out before the mid 70's - but- it does show merrit for a STRONG, stiff action. The military actions are not particularly stiff, having rails and open bottoms for magazines.
Just saying, but that is a nice design for a '3-position' or 'prone' rifle.
