Thanks guys. I appreciate all the interest and kind words. It sure has been fun. I'm glad I finally got a better camera too. Hopefully the latest pictures are a little better. To answer your question Bob: I'll be as honest as I can here:


This 30-06 weighed the same:

and recoil felt a little worse. Due greatly to the stock shape and design.

Brad brought this to my attention a long time ago and mentioned the parallel comb as being great at minimizing felt recoil. I have to say I totally agree with him. Compare these stocks:

By the way, BobinNH and DakotaDeer and I believe thekid (who deleted his post, I have a good memory huh grin ) think this stock is a Brown precision, which shares a lot of the same features/looks as the Bansner but it has a slimmer wrist. I like the stock design a lot regardless of whether it is a Bansner or Brown Precision.
