Haven't set it on a scale or anything, but if I had to guess I'd say 12-15 lbs anyhow.
It's a heavy bastard, that's for sure.
The stock is VERY heavy all by itself, something like 8 lbs bare.
Being a Bell & Carlson I wasn't expecting McMillan stiffness, but I was very much impressed with this one's rigidity. If it's not every bit as rigid as the McMillan, I'd be surprised.
No matter how I loaded the thing I could not see any deflection, and the barrel stays floated even when I lean on it.
That's about all you can really ask from a stock anyway, and since the weight is a bit on the high side, I'd guess that it has a solid core.
I'm very happy with it, that is for sure. It fits the action very well, with good bearing all across the bedding block, and barrel has over 1/16" of float all the way up to the recoil lug.
The only modification I made was to relieve the area around the bolt handle where it had a small area of contact with the bolt closed. Half an hour with a file and some 600 grit sand paper, and you can't even tell it's been worked on. No paint, the color goes all the way through the resin.
PB - Sorry man, I got mine the old fashioned way, by buying a complete 700P and harvesting the barreled action.
It came in an HS Precision stock, which was terrible in both fit and ergonomics. The comb was way too low, and the ridiculous palm swell grip was so damned big I couldn't get my hand all the way around it.
I wasn't a fan, so it got 86'ed in favor of the B&C, which I believe to be a superior piece.
This particular B&C at least is both better built and fits the action much better than the HSP it displaced.
The H&S weighed just over two pounds, so definitely a foam core in that one.
SB - Love the color and grain of that stock. I've never been much of a fan of thumbhole stocks, they just look funny to me, but that one is made from some beautiful wood. I bet that rifle is a good shooter too.
Does that rifle have a detachable box magazine? That's the one thing mine is missing, and I wish I could have found a donor rifle with the drop mag bottom metal, but it was not to be.
I've been tempted several times to go the aftermarket route and spring for the bottom metal from Tactical Rifles that lets you use the AI mags, but I can't bring myself to spend $400 on a floor plate and $100 a piece on magazines to convert a rifle I paid $800 for initially.
I'm keepin' my eyes peeled though. The first time I see either a another good barreled action with the DBM, or a cost effective aftermarket solution, I'll be on it like a pack of dogs on a fat kid.
