I don’t consider the FW contour a pencil barrel and all. Yes it has a small muzzle diameter but it tappers hard and carries a good bit of meat from the chamber past the end of the stock. More sporter contour than mountain rifle contour. Feather weight is more of a model of gun and contour of the barrel to me. They are not feather weight rifles in the actual weight department. I like them and I like the weight myself. I’m just saying if you’re concerned with them being too light or barrel being too skinny don’t worry about that part.

It’s a larger contour than say a Remington mountain rifle contour KS contour or a Montana 84M contour.
