What is the most inexpensive way to convert an adl? What all do I need to buy and do? Do I need a new stock?

Stock and bottom metal.
If you look around you can find factory stock and bottom metal pretty cheap. Lot of people toss them when when the use a bdl as doner action.
Pm Derrick at horizon he may have some factory stuff laying around

You will need a BDL mag box, bottom metal and have the stock cut out for the new config. Or buy a stock already cut for BDL metal. Detach mag systems will cost more (at least double) than a BDL conversion.

If you have a grinder you can get by with just a stock and floor plate. You will have to square up the adl mag box to get it to fit. If not you will need a mag box and floor plate and stock

Best way to go is get BDL stock, throw the other stuff a way and get a HS precision DBM

These prices amaze me. I picked the exact same parts from a new rifle for $50 shipped and it's still sitting in the safe for when I buy an ADL model short action for the wife. I guess as long as people keep buying them, the prices are going to stay up there... However, I would do what HorizonFirearms suggested.

I didn't even look at the price. Just linked to what he needed. I also got my parts for 50 bucks used when I converted an adl.

Just to make sure that it is done thoroughly, I go both ways.

Yeah, that linked price is too high for me. I'd do the $50 for one. Need it for a long action.
It is far more important to be able to hit the target than it is to haggle over who makes a weapon or who pulls a trigger.

have a link for one for a SA 700 ? I found nothing Search "Remington 700 bottom metal"...there are at least 7 for sale right now. I've never seen them sell for $50...they are almost always $65-90. It would be cheaper to buy an entirely new gun than the bottom metal and stock separately. Buy a SPS and sell your ADL.
