[QUOTE="Burley, post: 1325651, member: 99551"] I'm going to preface this with.... I'm new to a lot of this.... that's why I'm asking for info. So I'm looking at 3 stocks. I haven't held a huge variety of stocks and I'm wanting to know people's opinions on a couple of different styles. What do You like and why. I'm building a 264 for this seasons hunt. Running out of time to do a custom McMillan or something similar due to the long lead times. Found some options thought that are all around 5-6 weeks and that works with my time frame. McMillan has 2 shocks in their inventory that you can get inlet ready. Their Game Warden and also their McMillan Hunter. With edge infill they are both in the 2lb range. I also looking at the Christensen Arms Ridgeline stock. It's what i originally what i was leaning towards. Very comfortable stock for me. However, the Christensen's inlet is designed for a bull barrel. What i have is a Proof Research Sendero contour. So why's going to be better route. A McMillan that I've never held and don't know if I'll like those stocks. Or the Christensen that I'll have to glass bed that Sendero contour. The McMillan will be a better fit but I know how that Christensen feels in hand. Christensen might look bad trying to fill the space for the barrel when glass bedding? [/QUOTE]
