[QUOTE="eddybo, post: 196505, member: 7194"] That is the Robinson Composit Speedy F-Class stock. I like the feel of it better shooting prone than the Tooley/MBR on my old gun. The Tooley was okay until I tried this one. My old gun is a RB/LP 3lug which I find to be a hassle when shooting prone. The new gun is right/right so that may be the reason I feel more comfortable with the new gun. I haven't heard of anyone having problems:eek: is a surprise to me. My old 6x47 shot a bunch of 300 yard .2 ctc groups and several sub inch 600 yard groups. Maybe my smith just has a good reamer, I dunno? I know he has chambered up at least a dozen of these and everyone that has it thinks it is the cat's meow. I feel that mine is more accurate than a 6br with the ability to run heavier bullets faster. I never played with the type powders that I ran in mine, maybe that is part of the reason I like it so much. I started with VV160 and later switched to VV560 for a little better case fill and velocity. My 42 gr load is about 10% compressed with the 115s but shoots. I dont feel like I am giving up anything to a 6.5x284 with this case and actually feel that I have an accuracy advantage. But hey, maybe its just the reamer. James Jones from this site had one chambered by the same smith maybe he will get his up and running and give us a report. I know a few folks gave up on the 6.5x47 as IMO it needs a little more capacity to be competitive past 600, but have heard no complaints from the 6s. [/QUOTE]
