Hi everyone,
I have two questions. I have a Rem 700 BDL in 7mm mag. Im replacing the stock on it, and I dont know what the factory barrel contour is. Is it the factory sporter or magnum sporter? All I know is its the factory 24" barrel.
This will be primarily be a ladder tree stand hunting rifle. I've narrowed it down to the AG Carbon All Terrain (CAT) or the McMillan Hunter.
AG uses carbon fiber in all their stocks, and the CAT comes in at 26oz. The McMillan Hunter is around 30oz. If I forego the McMillan Edge fill, and with a little first responder discount it brings it to only a $12 difference. McMillan being $12 more.
Both companies I spoke to don't recommend bedding their stocks, but you certainly can. I would prefer not to bed the action if I dont need to. Mcmillan has always had a good reputation. AG Composites produces factory stocks for Bergera, Barrett, and Kimber to name a few. They are also known for high quality.
Considering what I will be doing with it, for a $12 difference which would you choose?
Thanks
