I like the light weight model, the standard is clunky and heavy to me. I also like the Jim Tertan designed stock for the Mountain eagle rifle made by MSR.
The stocks get criticized for their weight but with that comes a rigidity not found in most other stocks. I would also take a look at Stockies stocks Alaskan model which is one of the best weight per cost options out there. The McMillan stock for the Model 7 from the custom shop is nice, might be hard to find as a take off but if you did it would be a good way to go.
"When you disarm the people, you commence to offend them and show that you distrust them either through cowardice or lack of confidence, and both of these opinions generate hatred." Niccolo Machiavelli
