I put on Manners MCS-T on my Model 70 25-06 and it turned out nice. The bare stock weighed in at 28.7 oz. That was 3 years ago, I’m not seeing Winchester as a current inlet option, wonder if it’s worth an email to Manners…
It’s a nice feeling rifle. LGS has a 300 win with a carbon wrapped bbl. The safety is different, the trigger felt nice. Guaranteed to shoot less than an MOA. $1879.00. Not sure I need to cycle through 300 WM rounds that fast, a .308 version might be fun.
My boy killed a raghorn last weekend with the 143 gr Factory Bondstrikes in 6.5 PRC. Quartering away at 270 yds, we recovered the bullet in front of offside shoulder just under the skin. ~ 65% weight retention. He’s shooting an X Bolt speed SR, the factory ammo is 2765 fps in the 20” barrel...
Thanks for the report! Can’t wait to open mine up and try it. My wife won’t let me touch it, she insisted that it be wrapped and put under the Christmas tree 😁

In the works now is a lightweight 30 cal. 20” 1-9 twist. Trying to decide between a 300 WSM or 300 PRC…leaning more towards the PRC
