Ok, I'm going to try and simplify my question. Everyone seems to love McMillan Stocks. I've been thinking about one myself. One of the gunsmiths I use, told me to buy a Bansner stock and save myself about half the cost of a McMillan, and get the same quality. If the stock still needs pillars, and or bedded, what makes them so desirable? I've bedded wood stocks, and cheap plastic remington tupperware stocks with good results. I'm not cheap by any means, and am willing to pay the price. Just some honest opinions what makes the McMillan stock the cat's meow? I don't want to drive a Hummer, when my explorer is pretty good, just to say I have a Hummer. I'm not a trendy person. Please give some pros and cons. Thanks
