Does this stock come made for the standard factory barrel or is it made to fit the heavy barrels? Thanks

I don't have a clue, I was doing a lot of searching for a stock and the duramaxx stock came up and I was curious about it.

I have one I bought from a member years ago. Heavy barrel contour, long action. They are listed as "no longer available".

What about the standard varmint stock from bell and Carlson, is it for heavy barrels as well. Are the carbalite stocks pretty good? I have a savage model 11 with the standard barrel and the stock is just a tad bulky for me, I was wanting to get a good synthetic stock

It is a dang shame about DuraMaxx stocks going away.
I have two and have been extremely happy with them,
given the price. A big improvement over early Savage
synthetic stocks. Yes both the DuraMaxx and the Varmint
stocks have heavy barrel channels. But one of mine
has an action with a sporter barrel, and one with a
magnum contour barrel, and I think it looks fine with
the large gap. The stocks in question are top and bottom
rifles in this picture:
As you can see, mine got in a fight with a rattle can.
I would have replaced the middle Savage with a DuraMaxx,
but I am considering trading it on a new FN Win. M70,
just because I always wanted a control round fed M70.
It is almost a crime to trade this Savage. It is a 300 WSM,
that shoots itty bitty groups. But I really want an M70 in
300 WSM, so I decided not to do a stock upgrade on it.
Anyway, I wouldn't worry about a sporter barrel in a heavy
barrel channel stock...It has great ventilation!
