[QUOTE="TOM H, post: 374279, member: 306"] This is how I build one of my deer/elk rifles. I used a Broughton 5c #4 contour 1/12 twist 24" long barrel for my first 300WSM in a MODEL 70 HUNTING McMillian stock. Gunsmith is putting together another one using same style McMillian stock #3 Kreiger 1/11.25 5r barrel be finished appr 25.6". Used Win model 70 actions that were already set up for the WSM. I haven't found the need to change from the basic design of a hunting stock if I have to lay prone for a shot I'll throw my pack down shoot over that some times I'll shoot offhand my last buck and elk were off hand shot. I have acouple varmit rifles used a Lee Six thumbhole stock but wouldn't use one on big game rifle. I used a B&C on a 30-338mag,Banser on a 270WSM,H&S on 35 Whelen. As long as the rifle balance nice from the shoulder what I'm concern with and I try and keep rifle/scope weight 8.5 to 9.25lbs. Well good luck [/QUOTE]
