I don't want to push this into another Searcy pro and con discussion but isn't the standard PH model a factory stock rifle but adjusted for LOP?
The Searcy PH model has a stock made to fit the customer including cast off, drop and LOP, at no extra charge. If the customer wants, he can get extras like trap door grip cap, leather recoil pad, sling studs, upgaded wood, etc. for an extra charge. Alternatively you can just get the Searcy Deluxe model which has all the bells and whistles.
In general Searcy has a 6-12 month backlog depending on when you order. Ivory Beads in California keeps one or two new Searcys in stock, however, in case a guy needs one in an emergency. Cabelas has a used Searcy every once in a while. When I bought mine, Cabelas had a used one for $1,000 more than a new on. Reason for the price difference? No waiting.
