Specs for the McMillan Hunter show a drop at comb of .75". For some reason I thought it had a higher comb/less drop. I've got a setup with Hawkins rings that are higher than I like and was thinking the Mc Hunter might help me out. I've had the Remington Hunter on a heavy barrel and it seemed like it had a higher comb....but it's been a while. Anyone have feedback on the Hunter's comb height? Thanks https://mcmillanusa.com/stock/mcmillan-hunter-winchester-hunter-sako-hunter/

I don't recall the McM Hunter stock as being one with a high comb. I've moved on from the Hunter to either the Game Hunter, Game Stalker, or Mesa Precision Attitude when a stock with a high low comb is desired.
Edit - meant to say high comb, not low comb.

I never thought I'd grow up to be a grumpy old man, but I did, and I'm killin' it.

You should look at the McMillan Game Stalker.....just switched a couple rifles over from Rem Hunters. The stock works great with higher mounted optics & is very similar to the McMillan Hunter.

How is the grip on the Game Stalker, compared to Hunter?
Longer or shorter... meaning.. more room for fingers?

Or you could get a Triad stock pack. I know, that’s not nearly as fun as buying a new stock.

Yeah, I'll probably just go with a beartooth comb kit. It works well and this is a lighter weight rifle I'd rather not add more weight to.

The grip is similar to the McMillan Hunter.....slightly more vertical but very close.
