Have the below Win Model 70 pre-64 action and McMillan pre-64 Monte Carlo stock. Will become 7X57 and scoped with Leupold 4X. My questions are regarding balance and proportion. Prefer 22-23" barrel. Any pictures/links would be much appreciated if similar builds are accessible.

Action, Jewell trigger, Talley bases & rings are unchangeable.

With the stock&action I have, what barrel contour and length balances/proportional?

I really like the Winchester FWT contour barrel. Which McMillan stock offers slim forearm, open grip, no cheek piece? Again, balance and proportioned to this action & FWT barrel contour at 22" ? It must have rubber recoil pad.

Thank you kindly for sharing your experience and opinions. My goal is a well balanced and proportional 22" rifle. With the action/trigger/rings&bases at 50.4oz, my main goal isn't total overall weight.
