From the looks of them, they don't appear overly textured. Here is the website of the company that makes them http://agcomposites.com/ From http://agcomposites.com/ : Black Sky, Desert Camo, Hunter Green and Charcoal Gray are a textured paint. This paint provides a comfortable and effective grip. ...again, I ain't had my mitts on one from a Barrett...yet...

Stocky Stocks sells these stocks as well. They list the LOP as 13.875" and overall length as 30.75". They don't show any options on LOP??

Be nice if Barrett offered some of the other colors!

Stockys stock may be the same as the one on the Barrett but it ain't the same stock on a Forbes/Nula. I have one of each and they are a little different.The one from Stockys is for a Rem. long action sporter contour and it weighs 25 oz. Wrist feels slightly different than Forbes/Nula and forearm is kinda squared off looking on the end. Buttstock is about same dimensions.

Here are some pics. Grabbed a couple off the shelf. Montana on top. Note the closed grip on the Barrett. ![[Linked Image]](http://i1127.photobucket.com/albums/l639/shortactionsmoker/DE32CE33-0339-4BD4-8E19-EB557D5CD53A.jpg) Montana on top again. The Barrett forearm is longer. ![[Linked Image]](http://i1127.photobucket.com/albums/l639/shortactionsmoker/B839F088-6282-4D14-8652-EA7EFC105264.jpg)
I enjoy handguns and I really like shotguns,...but I love rifles!

I've taken a couple of out the stock to examine bedding. Both bedding jobs were excellent.
I'm impressed with the rifles. Honestly, Barrett did it right. Weight, stock, bedding, 3" mag box, all stainless, Timney trigger, balance....

Darrik,
Thanks for doing that!
The Fieldcraft looks to be about 1-ish" longer on the forearm.

I looked and handled one today too. Wow! It is the only rifle in the shop that I would consider trading my 7mm-08 Montana for. If the Barrett was a 7mm-08, I think I'd be all over it.
If we live long enough, we all have regrets. But the ones that nag at us the most are the ones in which we know we had a choice.

What's the barrel contour like compared to the Montana? Is it any heavier at all?

Does anyone know what the length of pull is on the Fieldcraft? I don't see any mention of it in the specs on their site.

I've seen more well-shot game lost with TSXs than any other premium bullet.
