Thumbhole stock for Savage?

Since the polls are a flying... :wink:

Absolutely. I want a .45 too!

Never owned one but may consider if available. Not sure how I could be any happier than I am with my current laminated but one never knows!

I really love the looks of a thumbhole stock and at the range its looks like it would be great but in a hunting situation if you have to make a quick shot or you have to shoot left handed the thumbhole would be hard to position your hand quickly and impossible to shoot left handed if it's a right handed stock.

I've been hunting with thumbhole stocks for 3 years now and never had any issues. To me the thumbhole just feels more natural. It's the biggest issue keeping me from getting a Savage.

Wonder if Savage would make one for ya, at a reasonable price?

I am screwed if it comes down to having to take a left handed shot anyway. I am nearly blind in my left eye. In fact what little vision I still have in it hurts me more than it helps in 99.9% of the situations I have been in since my vision problem started.


Both my original 10ML, and my 10 ML II will have laminate thumb hole stocks before next deer season, so I think that you can all figure out where my vote went.

I bought the Boyds vented target laminate for mine- I may go ahead and order the thumbhole vented laminate for my dads 10MLII- at $84.00 its hard to beat the price http://www.boydboys.com/BrowseEbus/VarmintSavage.asp

I voted yes, not because I want one but because they should be available for those that do

Yes Boyd's does make a thumbhole stock for the Savage 10ml. To my specs. it runs around $300.

After this post was made Savage did indeed offer a TH stock. You can also buy one at EABCO but its a pig of a stock. It also has pillars installed and the Boyds do not. Plan on spending around another $100 on that Boyds for pillars. The EABCO stock is about $250 total.
