Swede,

I was looking into them myself, it depends on the stock you are looking for, I know the A-5 is a wait as that is the one I was looking at.

McMillan stocks

There is no duty on the stocks,as they are made in the US.My first McMillan was ordered direct in a McSwirly finish,it took 41/2 months to arrive.The 2nd one was ordered through Rick Bin at 24hrcampfire.It was ordered June 1st.,and Rick just phoned me and said it would be painted and shipped next week.So they are a long wait,but they are great stocks but pricey.Check 24hrcampfire,they are having a Christmas sale on McMillan.The McMillan "Edge"technology is apparently the lightest,stiffest stock you can buy.Check the McMillan website for styles,I use the Mtn.Rifle models.Cheers,Gunner

My McMillan stock took 3 1/2 months to arrive but was well worth the wait. It was for a CZ550 and it is a really nice stock. I really think that all the custom stocks run about the same time unless you happen into an in stock item. I ordered an HS Precision stock and the McMillan on the same day and they arrived within a week of each other.
Take good care,
Dave

McMillan

I have the Model 70 Supergrade stock on my 300WSM.Great stock,I had it done with a blind magazine.I would like a more rounded forearm though,the way it comes it's quite flat on the bottom surface Gunner

Here's a local fellow to try for the McMillan Stocks.

Aubrey White used to own North American Shooting Systems. I got mine from him years ago, he carried a pretty good stock back then.
