"It's heavy." LOL  :rolleyes: I have a VTR that currently has a Choate Ultimate Sniper, 6 lbs. I am switching to the MAGPUL as soon as possible. MAGPUL seems to have bridge the gap between expensive chassis and plain stocks and give you the option of switching to a magazine setup for a lot less.

I have a 13# rem 700 too. It’s not that heavy, but it’s heavier than I’d want to strap to my backpack.

Lol, I wish it was only 13#. I think it was #26 with optic and I do pack it quite a lot especially elk hunting in Washington. Now I carry it and a climbing tree stand, but I live in a much flatter area.

A 26 pound rifle? Is the stock made of bricks?

If you were closer I’d pull mine off and loan it to ya jackelope. I actually really like the stock but will be selling it sometime this next year when my manners comes in. I believe (but may be wrong) that the hunter 700 stock has the same grip angle as ar15 rifles.
I'd be interested in your stock. haven't shot this gun much due to no dedicated scope and the flimsy stock

First off I wanna say rifle looks pretty sweet,and was kinda wishing I went with that when I did my stock on my 700.

I went this route ,cheap,lite,looks alright,comes with recoil pad or you can mount your butt plate off 700,manufacturing by remington.
