[QUOTE="NomadPilot, post: 411610, member: 19896"] Don't sweat it. I guarantee you're not the first newbie they've talked to and helped. Yes. Contours are numbers (#1, #5) or they're things like "Palma," "Light Palma." Here's Krieger's list: [url=http://www.kriegerbarrels.com/Contours-c1246-wp3382.htm]Contours[/url] Here's a weight calculator so you can see what changing lengths and contours does to your weight. [url=http://pac-nor.com/cgi-bin/pnb/bweight.cgi]PAC-NOR Barreling, Inc. - Barrel Contours[/url] Yes. Rear of the buttstock to trigger. Go to a gunstore and shoulder all the rifles you can. Take notes of the make and models that feel best then go home and look up their LOP. Average is 13.5" to 14.0". [IMG]http://www.skbshotguns.com/images/old%20website/85tss_stock.jpg[/IMG] Manners DBM is different than other bottom metals you listed. It's actually a chassis/bedding block, a la an Accuracy International or Bell & Carlson stock. I've never heard of Tactical Rifles DBM. Not saying it's not good, but I've not heard of it. Surgeon and Badger M5 both accept AICS mags. They're both top quality, so look at the methods of release and such to decide between those. Seekins was also rumored to be coming out with a DBM for AICS mags. I've got his regular DBM and magazine. I haven't had a chance to shoot it yet to tell you much about its performance. Here's a thread about the Manners chassis. [url]http://www.snipershide.com/forum/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=1662665[/url] [url]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NV8Hae4e_Qo[/url] [/QUOTE]
