If the barrel isn't to big to fit I go Compact/Edge with everything now. Heavier barrel (hunting heavy not tact) with a Rem gets a Classic. Mt Rifle is a VERY close second choice behind the Compact/Edge.

Well, I hope you guys are right, since I ordered a Remington compact in standard fill with 50% forest green 50% white today. I was tempted to do an Edge fill, but the swirl just looks so dang cool and different. The stock is going on a remington left hand short action, so options were limited for what would work.

When I order my stock should I have Mcmillan install factory aluminum pillars or let my smith do that?

As it turns out, a #4 is kinda tight in a McMillan Hunter, so now I am torn between a BDL and Remington Hunter. Remington hunter is more comfortable, but BDL isn't quite as beefy through the forend. Decisions, decisions...

Contour can skew things. I'd MR a #1 or less and once you get above a #4.5 or so,I'm in A5 mode..............
