can you put a Boyds stock on a 77/44 if integrally suppressed?

You'll have to inlet the stock a lot. Who built it? Johns guns/ dark horse?

Did you seal the inside of the stock with anything? I've ended up having to do quite a bit of sanding in the magazine area

[PharmerJon]

No thumbhole or Barracuda-style offered yet, though...

Did the new stock increase or decrease accuracy?

Still not done fitting/bedding it. Ill post up some pics when complete

So by the time you buy a new stock, have it fitted properly, and upgrade the trigger, how much have you saved over just buying a nicer rifle to begin with?

To be fair.. if he is like me he was going to do that stuff to any Tupperware rifle he bought anyway. I can see the value of starting with a lower bottom line.

Not sure who the questions were directed to, but sadly, I've not had a chance yet to get this rifle out to shoot it. I've still yet to shoot it (put the stock on right after buying it from a friend) so I won't be able to say how the new stock affects accuracy.

Sealing the inside of the stock isn't a bad idea. I hadn't thought of that. I'll have to look into it and see if it needs it. I still have just a tiny bit of fitting to do.

Yep

I just put a Boyds stock and Boyds stainless trigger guard on a Savage Axis. Changed the whole feel of the rifle.
It dropped right in with no issues at all.

Put my Marlin XS7 in a Boyds. Thinking about bedding it myself now.

Does add weight, but I think it's good weight
