I have a McMillan graphite stock on an Ed Brown Damara and a B&C Medalist on a Mark V. The McMillan is better with a stiffer fore end. The B&C fore end flexes a lot more. I free floated and glass bedded the B&C and torqued the screws, 55 inch pounds on the front, 35 on the back. The Medalist requires a much bigger free floating gap than the McMillan due to the flex factor. For the price ($207) from Stocky's vs. $500 or so for the McMillan, I think the Medalist has it's place. I don't know if the McMillan is 2 1/2 times better, although it is better. Both guns will shoot 1/2" or better with the right loads.
