Fox Graded Stock Dimensions

Post by gilrussell »

Were the graded Foxes typically turned out with dimensions similar to those of the Sterlingworths of the time, ie lots of drop? Or were they truly custom made?This relates to a Fox C Grade (12)that is coming this way next week without a stock. My dilemma is: look for a replacement or restock? I have a hard time with stocks with more than 1 3/8" to 1 1/2" at the comb so I am possibly answering my own question.

Any suggestions w be most appreciated. Gil

Gil graded dimensions were all over the board.I had an XE 20 that was 3 1/4 drop at heel and another one that was 2 3/8 inches.I doubt you will ever find a used stock that will fit correctly,at least I never have. Bobby
