Has anyone had a gun fitting and stock made by JJ Perodeau? Any good or bad experiences with him, or recommendations for alternatives? The gun would be a Miroku A&D boxlock, if that changes things.

For reference I'm 6'8" with a long neck and long arms so no factory gun even comes close to fitting me. To get anything resembling a good fit I'm going to need a fitted stock, I reckon.

Do yourself a favor and order from Amazon Rollin Oswald’s Stockfitters Bible. It will help you self-diagnose stock fit problems. Great reference book. Also, keep in mind (and this may not apply to you) but any stocker will charge at the minimum $3-3.5k for a stock off a duplicator, not including wood. A Miroku SxS is a good gun, but if you go with a Greenwood or a Doug Mann they will put a serious hole in your wallet and you will be way upside down on your initial cost. Been there and done that

The man asked about JJ Perodeau at Champlin Arms. Do you think he will be any cheaper than the other stockers mentioned? I doubt it. It sounded as though Kip wanted a new stock made and a fitting. That’s expensive. If Kip wants it done on the cheap, then the cheap way to go is use 10 spacers and then either file on the comb or add some moleskin. On the other hand, if he wants a new stock and an expert gun fitting, then go to a pro and expect to pay for the service. To me, an expert gun fitter is worth paying for.
