This is a great thread. I am stuck at a crossroad with my win 70 338 24". Hunters edge, compact edge, Brown Precision...?
I like the Hunters Edge/compact on a smaller sporter with a 22" (have one on a Rem Seven 7mm SAUM and love it on that rifle). I put one on a M70 270WSM with a 24" barrel and didn't like it at all on that rifle - way too slim/short for a 24" full sporter barrel. I have several of the M70 Supergrades, and short of the Echols Legend, I like it better than any others I've seen for a hunting sporter. The forearm is squarish, but it honestly works much better than it looks (great off just about any kind of rest, backpack, etc.).
Shameless plug - I have a couple listed in the classifieds, just trying to slim down the herd of extra stocks some.
