[QUOTE="Alex Wheeler, post: 1885117, member: 101859"] Funny timing, [USER=13632]@bigngreen[/USER] was just over today checking out this stock. Yes, the way I ordered this one came in at about 31oz. Anyone can order these from McMillan. If your trying to get them light, go with a painted finish. The gelcoats adds 4-5oz. Guys get WAY too caught up with comb height in my opinion. I know its a personal preference, but mine is to have the comb high enough to give me a touch to help quickly position my head, but not so high or wide I start to put actual pressure on the stock that will degrade accuracy. Unless you have a condition which prohibits you from holding your head up for long, you will shoot better with less of you on the gun. I have used just about every stock on the market, this ones my personal favorite so far for this use. At any point in time, I have almost every hunting stock on the market in the shop from McMillan and a couple from Manners. And I have owned rifles built on most of them at one point or another. I have gotten really picky about how I want a stock to be designed for its intended application. I just finished one on the Manners UC stock, and its the best in its class. Rifle came in a 4lb 14oz., really like that stock for an ultralight. [/QUOTE]
