[QUOTE="The Hock, post: 1812119, member: 8986"] First... enough stock have failed in lead sleds that they caution against heavy weight in the sled and heavy recoiling rifles! Now. I want to thank everyone for their feedback. I've decided what to do. 1) I'll not use the McMillan. It turns out a lighter and more reliable stock is available for about the same price. The McMillan will go on the 338-06 I'm having done. 2) Oregon Gunsmithing is going to make one of their fine 16 ounce carbon stocks for my rifle. With it and a change to a slightly lighter scope I'll have a rifle that's just over 6#. It'll push back a bit more but as I hike around up here at 8600'+ I'll be happier! [/QUOTE]
