I asked D'Arcy to clarify the differences between the Shrike and the Legend, here is his response:
The cross-sectional width, depth and shape of the Shrike forend ahead of the receiver is vitally identical to the Legend. The grip is smaller in circumference due to the tang angle, contour and shape as predicated by the 700 or most similar clone receivers. The butt section, drop, cast off, etc is also "almost identical" to the Legend. It's not for everybody and like the Legend doesn’t try to be. Nice response from D'Arcy.

The good news for left handers is that a Left Hand Legend actually has appreciable LH Cast. Very easy to get behind a scope and get a good sight picture. Wish there was enough demand to cover startup cost for a Left Hand Shrike... Agreed! I really like my LH Legend and thinking about ordering another.

Woodhits: Thanks as the photos were deceiving or at least to my eyes. I also wanted a slimmer fore end so must have imagined that. Either way both nice stocks.
