I admit a fondness for Mannlicher stocks, and I have two. One is on a tang-safety blued/walnut Ruger M77 RSI in 250 Savage. Like one of the other rifles described here, it puts the first bullet pretty much exactly where the crosshairs are and the rest kind of go wild in a 2" group. It has a Leupold Vari-X III 1.5-5 on it. Don't know if the group size matters; so far, my son or I just fire one shot and something dies.
The other is on a Remington Custom Shop Model 7 in a laminated brown stock. It's a 7mm-08 with a 20" barrel and shoots several factory loads into the same 1.5" group interchangeably. If I stick with one load, it'll stay under an inch. It wears a Leupold VX3 2.5-8 with the B&C reticle. Glue weighs more than wood, so the laminated stock is heavy for its size. It is pretty slender in the fore-end and also in the pistol grip, so it's not overly heavy. One of these days I intend to get out and see what it does to critters!
