Anyone familiar with AG composites stocks. Any comments on them? Do they have a real long lead time? Thanks Yes 10 week lead time. I was told they now have 40-50 employees and are now running 2 shifts. So I would say yes. People are definitely liking AG stocks!

Are you part of the problem or part of the solution?

AG Comp Sportsman took 7 weeks. Got it a few weeks ago. I really like it. Rem 700 SA for M5 DBM. I already knew quality from handling a few Fieldcrafts. Will try to post a few pics this evening.

Just got in two more privateers. Their lightest stock. Both came in 5oz over listed weight. Weighed 29oz. Inletting was better on these two.

Looking good 257. I think I'm going to order a Privateer tomorrow and give them a try.

the Proof stocks look really good, and have about 1/8” layer of carbon through the action inlet. They just need to offer sporter barrel channels. Proof and Manners UL Classic need to be available in long actions..... The Proof stock is available in long action. Have one for a build. Weighs a hair under 20 oz. Proof said no caliber restriction on it; they have folks using it on 375s and such.
If you died tomorrow, what would you have done today ...

One of my M700 280’s wears a Sportsman from AG. I like it.

Was also about to order a Privateer, any other owners notice weight is more than advertised? Will be needing a Rem mountain contour so that won’t help with weight loss. Would a McMillian Edge be a better bet for lighter weight?

There are always lighter options if a guy wants to spend more, and wait longer....

Has anyone else weighed their AG ? Since it’s only a sample of two I would love to hear more feedback from other people.

CAT and Alpine Hunter, both in Carbon Camo, came in a little under listed weight.
