I am building a new M700, with a Pacnor lightweight barrel. Do you guys recommend McMillian with the Edge fill, or an MPI Mountain Rifle Compact? Pictures are appreciated!

Given the choices posted I would say McMillan but I would much rather have an AG Composites or a Mesa stock on a light rifle. Cheaper and faster to get.

Of the 2, I would go McMillan, but if I may add another choice, I would add Banser stocks to the mix.


I may not be smart but I can lift heavy objects

I have a shotgun so I have no need for a 30-06.....

I’d take a look at AG. Composites. I have a different AG than what you would want for your build. Good quality, faster delivery, less cost.
And I have a bunch of McMillans.

McMillan's aren't worth their price now. When you could get them for $500 sure, but not now at $700+.

I would go MPI or Manners. Or even Stockys.

i have 2 MPI stocks I bought from and had installed by Extreme Rifle Works, I'm very happy with them. ERW often has over stock or canceled order stocks on hand, so you could likely have your gun finished pretty fast.

I'll have to look into MPI. I've also looked at Wildcat Custom stocks.

Mcmillan over MPI, no doubt. Wildcats are nice- not sure if Stuart is shipping to the states again. I know he had stopped a while back.

Lightest possible weight? MPI.

I have no McMillans, but the Dakota-style MPI on my '06 Mauser is light, very stiff, handles like a dream, and beautifully shaped.

ACG, Manners, or McMillan all before MPI.
