My 1899 is in pieces at this time waiting for some sort of spirit to move me to get started in restocking it.  I got a reproduction semi-inletted stock from Tree Bone Carving a couple of years ago and all I've done so far is fit the butt plate.  A bit puzzled as to where to start with the stock as there isn't a recoil lug and don't know what will keep the action tight in the stock during recoil.
Any suggestions?
I also need a hand guard and am looking at a repo also.  I just need to identify the type of rear sight before ordering a reproduction hand guard.

The barrel is in fair to good condition..

Fun and games.

This is just a bucket list job and am already into the rifle more than it's probably worth.  The barreled action was given to me a few years ago.
