Pecatonica Long Rifles. They make a replacement stock for the Hawken and it can be used with the Renegade parts. You can always remove the cheek rest, butt plate and nose cap areas if you don't like them or request they not be inlet. Link to their site below.

How bad is your stock? Some of the guys on the forum have made some amazing repairs. Maybe yours could be fixed?

This one look pretty good, there are a lot of Renegade stocks on eBay.

Just make sure its for a single or double trigger, which ever yours is, they don't interchange easily, if yours is a double then a Hawken stock will work, if its a single it won't, as mentioned eBay has plenty, just check on the trigger arrangement

If it’s not too bad you might be able to drill and glue/pin it with hardwood dowels. We have an old rifle in the family with a repair like that near the toe. It’s held for 90 years.
Post a photograph of what the crack looks like.
I have rebuilt a couple of nightmarish TC stocks, more internal stuff than external. Show us the damage, we may be able to offer an adequate fix suggestion.

Even the really icky crack through the weak part of Renegades can be fixed.
Like Mad Magazine used to say "epoxy can be cured".

I have actually repaired a few that were in two pieces. I have also turned a few away because of Gorilla Glue or something similar in the crack/split, as nothing really sticks well to GG once cured and I didn’t want to be associated with a repair that looked like a mile of bad road, not mention, would likely fail again.
The quality of any potential repair will depend on how clean the break is and what the wood was exposed to before attempting the repair.

in my humble opinion weather to repair or not is totally dependent upon how pretty the wood is there are just to many plain wood stocks out there to waist my time on repairing. but i have repaired a dozen or more aa-aaa stocks in the last 30 years. some you can't find unless told that its been fixed on others all you will see is a hard wood plug. my method never relies on just glue to hold the repair if it is a stress area. instead of wood i use a threaded set screw across the brake with the crack glued and wet i then drill and tap across while the glue is still wet screw the screw in below the surface and plug the hole with a appropriate wood plug
