Are you referring to the WWI USMC Winchester A5 scoped sniper rifles or the WWII Unertl scoped sniper rifles?

or the 03 with the M1908 or M1913 Warner Swazey Scope?

Any WW1 vintage sniper would use a Type "S" Straight grip stock w/ grasping grooves.

With my 1918 bbl i would suppose the USMC Winchester A5 version.

Wow, now after some more research online i am thinking maybe just put her back to service rifle with a straight stock. Besides, i think my M21 from an M1a standard is coming along nicely. No the scope is a new Weaver 6X38 K model.
