Thread: Advice for new 223

Im not having any luck tracking down a Kimber montana in 223. Next option is remmington model 7 but I would want a lighter stock for it. Can anyone tell me if Ken Henderson makes them for model 7?
My last option is keep my cz527 But would also want to change out the wood stock any options nz made for this. Would creakote also, my question on this, is the creakote applied to the chamber area ? Interested on what anyone has to say. I really do like the wood blued combination on the cz, but the amount of moisture it sees makes it a mission to keep mint, and the wood stock is going to get real beat up. from new on the first full day hunting in the rain what ever finish was on it completely came off and it would absorb enough water to make the barrel channel walk and also became noticeably heavier. I re finished the stock with tru oil which I found quite tricky to use and that sealed it up.
I think now for me I would rather a stainless synthetic combo for a rifle that sees a lot of use. This rifle also needs to be as light as possible. Sound Familiar? Cheers
