[QUOTE="Lefty7mmstw, post: 1728790, member: 48043"] I've got a prairie hunter (from Boyd's) on my lh 7mmstw (my boy has one on his Ruger American 6.5 creed too) and the rifle weighs 10# flat with a 24x Vortex viper on top in 30mm steel rings and a 27" #5 contour Shilen in front. It isn't any heavier than the walnut that was on the rifle in its last incantation. I am not flat bedded, but have felt bedded the barrel channel and properly relieved the stock for the thick recoil lug and Timney trigger. Boyds is a good stock; I'll likely buy more as needed.
