Thread: Are Parker Hale's good for anything these days?

Hi,

A lot of the custom rifle builds you see these days are on more modern actions like Rem 700's. But does anyone still use the old parker hales for anything? or are they just to old and heavy? Can you even get decent replacement stocks for them?

I ask as a mate has a parker hale Safari in 7x57 that he dropped down a bank and busted the stock. So he is off to buy a new rifle. The old parker hale is no good to him and doesn't want it. So I was just wondering if there was much point in trying to resurrect it.

Cheers Scott.
