old willys,

I've got them on two of my Tikka T3's (30-06 and 6.5x55) . I like the feel of them and they fit the guns very well. In hand they feel more like the T3 wood stock than the T3 fiber stock. They are very rigid, have a built in recoil lug, have a better recoil pad and are a more solid stock. I'm planning a 35 Whelen T3. When I get that done I'll be putting a B&C on it.

The one instance where I've chosen not to use a B&C is keeping the rifle as light as possible. I have a stainless T3 in .308 that I cut the barrel down to 19 in. I have not put the B&C on it just because I wanted to make it as light and compact as possible.
