I bought an '60s FN Musketeer 264WM with a 22" barrel.NIB. It had a very fast handling stock. Talk about a confused rifle. But the fast handling stock interested me. It was a why do the ergonomics work so well ? It all boiled down to the angle of my wrists. The pistol grip was fairly flat, allowing a quick, more natural raising of the rifle. A deliberate aim works better with a more vertical one, (which is what a 264WM should have). The fore-end helps too with a pronounced slope. This makes for a good looking rifle. You will find this type of stock on rifles with totally inappropriate calibers.
