B&C
I Received my Bell&Carlson Stock last night. I didn't find any blemishes in the finish, the fit on the pad was good. The action fit into the stock well and seemed to be flat without any rocking. the inlet for the trigger guard is close without being a snug fit. The stock resembles all of the others I that I have handled and personally I don't think the extra dollars for the HS are worth it.

When CZ had first come out with that stock HS is who they had contracted with. I purchased several of them. They look like this one converted to .20 VarTarg.
All of the CZ factory offering's where grey. After what seemed to be a short time CZ reconteracted the exact same stock, same specs and all with B&C to save money no doubt. I like the feel, weight and fit of that first stock and personally I can't feel any difference or see a performance difference between the two (if I just shot one then change and shot the other maybe I'd notice more), both shoot better then I do if everything is done right. Light enough to carry, really sits a bag well with that almost completely flat fore-end, I like these stocks a lot. After a couple years with BC CZ dropped the design and completely changed the configuration of their target stock. Personally I didn't care for the space age design of the new one and I've never even shot one. After CZ quit both the H.S. B.&.C. contracts for that design both companies continued making them to this day in various color schemes. Because I do really like that stock I have a few of both. First the H.S. This one is another .20 VarTarg done by Greg Tannel. This Stock is the the one of the two that would cost the most after market and I seem to feel a slightly better feel then all the rest but it's such a minor difference I couldn't tell ya why I like it's feel best. The last one a these stocks I got was when "Swift.220" pointed out that there was a 47 rifle "over-run" in the varmint design in .222 that CZ cut loose to a number of USA dealers. It was a one-off design that was never made for US delivery and has Mexico stamped on the side , it had a 26 inch barrel on it . I bought a B.&.C. stock for it in black and ribbed in red, it is one of those stocks that really does look a lot better in person then in a photo. Here's a picture of it before I had the barrel cut down to 24 I think. This picture seems to show the palm-swell in a more pronounced way. I have big hands and I like palm-swells. I also really like the flat fore-end. Great stock design in my opinion, good enough I guess that both companies kept it in their inventories. Way to much outta me, sorry. Hope you are doing well. -18 last night and the snow along both sides of the length of our driveway is plowed up higher then the tops of our cars, no stuff. "SO READY FOR SUMMER".

Do you think that the palm swell precludes reasonable comfortable use by a left handed shooter? I would like a synthetic stock like that on a 527, but since they do not make that stock in LH, that would limit me to getting a RH rifle and stock.

Not being left handed I really don't know all the things that are problematic but just as a "WAG" I'd think anything that normally causes ya a problem would be made worse with a right side palm-swell. Just guessing.

Fine for left hand.

I shoot them left handed, the stock is configured for right but there is swell on the left side, just less. They shoot just fine left handed. |
