Brand new, never bedded, just unpacked Manners EH3 for Remington 700 short action, BDL bottom metal. Heavy sporter barrel inlet. 1" decelerator, standard LOP, color is Elite Tac Black Forest molded in camo. Very beautiful carbon stock. 27 ounces. Standard 13.5" LOP. The fill on this is very easy to sand so if you want to run a larger barrel contour it'll take about five minutes to open the channel. 6 month backorder from Manners, just under $800 shipped from them. $600 shipped
Brown Precision kevlar/graphite stock for Winchester 70 short action. Inlet for one piece bottom metal. One year waitlist for these stocks. This has all the bells and whistles...most expensive stock that Brown builds ($1000+) It's 23 ounces with a 1" decelerator but you could cut it to 20 ounces if you put a microcell pad on. LOP is 13" for cold weather hunting. This is a very soft shooting stock--it's noticeably softer shooting than the exact same barreled action bedded into a heavier Micky stock.

Caveats on the Brown stock: this stock has seen barely any use, but the paint has always been slick and I was going to repaint it. There are some places where I tried to scuff the paint with a 3M red pad and because I presumed I was repainting it, there are some other imperfect areas in the surface finish (scuffing).
Also this was bedded for an LRI blueprinted M70 short action, which has some material machined off the front of the recoil lug. So the recoil lug area will need to be opened up a little for an unmodified action.
Long story short: I would plan on re-bedding this stock and also scuffing and repainting it.
If you want to get to 13.5" LOP you can cut the rubber pad off with a knife and use the existing pad base to glue a 1.25" microcell pad on. I've done this several times and it looks clean and gets to 13.5". It will also save weight.
If you buy the same stock from Brown it will cost $1000, you'll wait a year, and you'll still have to bed it.
Not taking offers...first public I'll take it gets the items.
I'd prefer electronic payment as there have been issues with slow mail around here. But...
