I can have a SUCKS screwed together in an Edge stock, with no throat goatphucks, for less than $1500. Sure it will weight 4 ounces more and not wear a Shaw barrel, but I'll suffer through.
Never seen so many folks wanting to drop dime on a Shaw tubed rig.
Sure, I can screw one together and it's gonna cost $400 for the action, $450 for the stock, $400 for the barrel...$1250 and counting plus 30+ hours of my time. I'd lose a lot of money selling it for $1500, but it would sure be an extracting SOB.
Shaw can make good barrels if they want to. A rifle will either shoot or it won't whatever name is on the barrel. I don't really need a 5# rifle, so I am not the intended target market for the Forbes concept.
I couldn't piece together a Montana for what they sell them for.
