Getting the ball rolling on my 6.5-300wby build. Ordered a proof research carbon fiber wrapped 26” 1-8 twist sendero lite. Bought a ptg magnum bolt to replace my standard bolt. Now onto stocks. The Manners EH-1 has been suggested a lot and obviously a McMillan game scout are my two top contenders but want to hear what everyone else is using. I want to keep the gun as light as possible. Thanks!
Keep in mind, that's a pretty expensive barrel to be using for something with relatively short barrel life.
As for stocks, McM and Manners are top of the line stocks and both offer their products in light weight CF versions. Adjustable cheek pieces are great, I have them on most of my stocks, but they also can add a fair amount of weight to the stock. I have quite a few HS Precision stocks that I've put Kydex type cheek rests on and they function just as well as my McM stocks with adjustable cheek rests, but weigh considerably less.
I understand that but it won’t get shot more than maybe 100 rounds max a year so I’m not worried about it.
100 rounds a year is not near enough fun!
