[QUOTE="angus-5024, post: 484733, member: 10306"] Micheal Eichele, Your Edge originally got me thinking about the Carbon barrels. I really like your rig. Right now I shoot a .338 RUM with a tupperwear stock, Mark 4 4.5-14X50mm. I like it and recoil is managable but it just doesnt ballance well at all, and I would like to go custom. My passion lies in backpacking so keeping the wieght to around what you have I think is important. How do you like that stock? that is the McMillan HTG right? I know what you mean about letting those rounds cool. In the summer around here its one shot every 20 min or the barrel gets toasted pretty quick. Where did you get a Ti brake? sp6x6, your set up also sound very sweet. I heard abuot it on other threads but didnt realize it had a carbon barrel. I was thinking abuot going with nightforce direct mount (one peice aluminum), but may go with the NF ultralight rings. What model lone wolf stock are you useing? I may put my curret M4 4.5-14 on it, or step up in wieght to the nightforce 3.5-15... and maybe even the 2-10 NSX but thats getting skimpy on magnifacation for me. I am also contemplating the bottom metal situation. although I want this rifle backpack freindly I also will be using it alot for normal carry rifle, so I may go with a DBM, which will add about a pound. but i dont see the adl style being that bad either. What do you guys think about useing a removable break? I've shot my RUM without ear protection and it aint nice. generally you've got time when your setting up for a long shot to put a brake on... maybe? getting sidetracked but any thought on thumbhole stocks? I was thinking rather tradional with the Manners MCS-T/TA or the Manners MCS-GAT. Both with 90% shell. [/QUOTE]
