After shooting the youth stocked 6.5 Creedmoor, I'm even more impressed.
It "feels" better, thinner in a few places, less blocky, and it handles recoil really well.

The mountain won’t fit without opening the channel. The magnum will have space but not horrible; at least to my eye. Will opening up the barrel channel from mountain to sporter contour impact the strength of the stock? By and chance does someone happen to have a picture of a sporter barrel in the magnum contour stock? Thanks, Mike

So the stock for my tikka came today and I've already put it on.....I put a limbsaver pad on the factory tikka stock and by switching to the BnC medalist my LOP got reduced a good bit.....at least a half inch. The meopta scope and the one piece tally base/ring only offer maybe an eighth of an inch forward shift on the scope.....gonna see how it shoots before making changes.

I learned a very important lesson with my Bell and Carlson.
In the dark I got off my mule and led her through a tick spot on the trail in the very dim early morning light.
I was leading a pack mule and had my 98 mauser in a B&C stock " Roselvelt style" sticking barrel down stock up almost vertices by the Saddle horn.
I didn't take the rifle out of the scabbard. Looked back, stock was broke clean off at pistol grip!
B&C gave me a new stock! WOW!
When leading a mule through dark thick brush, take your rifle outta the scabbard!
DUH!

I'm ordering one in March. They told me I could order one unpainted, just primed. I plan on painting it myself so that's the plan. Might modify grip angle too. Is it any less expensive that way? I prefer to do my own recoil pad, bedding, pillars if needed, paint, etc. For those who have bought the M700 Ti stocks in BDL or ADL, how stiff are the forearms? How much do they weigh when they come with recoil pad and paint?

I got two. One on a sporterized Swedish Mauser and one on a 257 Weatherby Vanguard. I like 'em both a lot. Both have that aluminum bedding block setup in them. It was the best thing I ever did for the Swedish Mauser which previously had an injection molded Ram-Line stock on it. If I had another rifle that needed a stock replacement Bell & Carlson would probably be where I looked first.

Ordered it yesterday, quoted 2 weeks. Nice people to deal with.

Are the factory remington mountain rifle with the B&C aramid-fiber reinforced stock the same aluminum bedded stock as on their website?

I've got two of them, yes they are.

Wow things have changed here . I love my Bell and Carlson and it made my A-bolt a much better shooter and heck of a lot more comfortable. Nice Pachmyer pads on the B and C. The only dig on it was that the rear screw from the factory stock was a touch too short for the B and C.
I bought a HS Precision later and sold it. The B and C is much more comfortable, cost less and required less trimming out.
