.....and another thought.
I carried it a lot this past weekend in the snow sans sling. I wanted it in my hands, not on my shoulder. The bottom of the stock feels round in my hand and is a joy to tote.
Battue asked a question earlier in the thread about offhand pointing and stability. I've compared the Forbes to the Montana....and the Forbes wins. I honestly think that the balance on the Forbes is better too.
I wanted to wait a bit before I passed judgement. I'm so use to the Montana, my opinion could have been biased. My feel meter is tilting to the Forbes...
