I'm in the process of making a stock for a HK 770 .308 semi-auto rifle. I built my own stock duplicator machine. The stock duplicator was a long term project, several years in the making. It is actually my third duplicating machine. I made a thumb hole stock for my HK 630 and 770 with the second and third version.

I'm making a master stock which will be used to cut the final walnut blank into the 770 stock. I'm in WI and I'm doing this for an individual in CA with specific requirements, 14" length of pull, small hand grip, and high comb. The original Heckler & Koch stock has a fairly long grip to trigger and is a European style stock. The individual wanted a more traditional stock. So I'm using an old Remington 700 stock for the master. This required a lot of milling and bedding for the action to fit into the stock. Once fitted it was obvious there was not enough wood in the action area. This was fixed by adding three layers of 1/16" thick balsa wood to the out side and flared into the stock contour.

What I call my master.

Here I'm starting to duplicate the master.

An update on the 770 stock that I have been making. It has taken a while. My wife passed last year and I was in the hospital eight weeks with sepic infections. I was taken six times by ambulance unconscious to several different hospitals in the eight week time frame. I came out very weak.
Anyways, The new 770 is almost done. The individual requesting this will have to do the final sanding and finish work. I've got to bed the four riser inserts into the stock, cut off the ends attach and grind a butt pad.
Oh, I used an Remington 700 stock for the pattern.
