Stock opinions please

[forest]

Hi not sure if have this in the right category but I am going to fit a new stock and was looking a few opinions on them. I have been thinking of the mcmillan stock. I am going for a tactical stock. It will be fitted on a remy 700 varmint. Will be used for target shooting on the range and maybe the odd deer. Had the A4 and A5 on my mind at the moment. I am also looking at other options. Would i be better to keep the hinged floor plate or go for a magazine ? Are there any pros and cons from these tactical stocks thanks.

I have one of my rifles mounted on a McMillan A5 and I like it very much. McMillan can put the flush cups for swing swivel attachments anywhere you want them and I found it quite easy to bed the action in this stock.
IMO it's a good stock whether you're shooting tactical or hunting.
I did find that I had to create a set of hard rubber shims so that my Harris bipod fit snuggly against the forestock but that was a minor issue.
I also like the fact that the cheek piece is removable to make bore and action cleaning very easy. gun)

Really like the mcmillan a5. Probably my favorite stock so far.

The A3 is my all around favorite. It actually feels good for the off hand shots and feels good prone and on the bench. I slightly favor the A5 for the bench and prone. If I could only have one, it would be the A3.

Ok thanks guys thanks for the advice. I have been looking at them and I think I am swaying towards the A5. I just need a little help on which one suits my rifle. I see them for sale on the forum but not sure which one to buy. I have a remy 700 varmint heavy barrel. I am keeping the hinged floor plate. Right handed and looking the adjustable stock. Which one will suit me? Will it list remington varmint stock? I can't see any listed in the LRH store if anyone could take a look and explain which one I need to order would be great thanks.

lets drop this in the mix....

I had 2 sticks built and one I put as McMillan on, the other I went with a Manners. Candidly, the Manners fit and finish is better and the Manners was less expensive.

Just my 2 cents. I'm a Manners person now.

I have MCMillian and Manners both and like both. I don't think you can go wrong either way. If the LRH store doesn't have what your looking for in stock check out Stockystocks.com.
