I was looking at McMillan's Edge stock for my M70 Featherweight- turns out the Featherweight has a relatively light wood stock (28-ish oz)- I would still see a near 8 oz drop with a Edge stock- fairly significant, but I'm wondering if the Edge provides more than just weight savings?

stiffer, aluminum pillars = better shooting???

they aren't exactly cheap, so if I could realize some additional benefits beyond the 8-ish oz weight savings it would be a little easier to purchase one smile

thanks in advance
