I have a Medalist on a .338 Win Mag. The grip shape buts the bolt right on my trigger finger. The recoil puts a big knot on my finger and peels a layer of hide off after about 15 shots. Anybody else have this happen? I have never had a Model 700 do that to me before, so I like to think it is the shape and style of the pistol grip portion of the stock.
mine is on a M70 in .358 WSM. it doesn't bonk my trigger finger, but i have big paws and wrap my pinky around the bottom of the grip, which probably pulls my hand away from the bolt handle.
josh, i think that stock is a beaut. seriously, i'd be happy as a clam with it.
