[QUOTE="An Idahoan, post: 1195017, member: 95631"] Perhaps I would! The stock came directly from B&C and I must say I was impressed by the stock. Unfortunately, my range time didn't go quite as well as I hoped. It shot 1.75" @ 102 yards (5 shots). I am at a loss as to where to go from here. If the Vanguard S2s needs the factory (or aftermarket) stock with "pressure points" to attain their highest accuracy (and perhaps they do) then count me out. That kind of a setup is going to be prone to variation depending on what kind of rest you're using. That may work for a shooter who is only ever using one setup off a bench, but for someone who is hunting? With my factory stock my POI would change 3.5 MOA just going from bags to bipod. I am sure MudRunner's suggestion would change the equation on this too, but my patience is thin after burning $150 in ammo chasing the accuracy problems. I think I am going to ditch my Vanguard S2 in favor of the Legendary Arms Professional that I finally got out yesterday. Right out of the box I shot 0.75" and 1.0" five shot groups with factory ammunition. Now on to load development for that rifle! [/QUOTE]
