I borrowed my brother's 66 back in the 70's and had a lot of fun with it till he took it back. Couldn't complain, it was his to start with and I had a lot of fun with it bouncing soup cans around at 40 yds at a local gravel pit. Was looking for a replacement and didn't realize how many variants of the basic nylon stock are available. I was over on a lever action board and saw a picture of a nylon stocked lever action .22 based on a nylon 66 stock. First time I have seen anything like that and man it looked slicker than snot.
