The Medalist with the aluminum chassis inside is a well made stock at a reasonable price. Because of the aluminum they are a little chunky and can't be made really light. They offer some versions in the 28-30 oz range which is pretty close to most factory stocks. Most of them are closer to 32-36 oz which is a bit heavier than factory. If putting together a rifle where weight isn't a concern, or if you have a rifle that you consider too light the heavier stock could be an advantage. I like them for certain uses.
They make some without the aluminum chassis. The original Ti stock and the Alaskan. They tend to be much little lighter and trimmer, but without the metal insert are a WEAK stock. They will snap like a dry match stick if used in harsh conditions. I'd rather stay with the factory Tupperware stock, they are a much tougher stock at about the same weight.
If you want light weight and a tough stock save your pennies and buy a McMillan Edge.
