I have basically an identical setup, except in 6.5 PRC and I love it. I wanted a to shave some weight on another build so I built a 6 CM last winter with a Stockys and I don’t like it nearly as much as the Mesa/Pure Precision stock. Gun feels very front heavy and I don’t like that at all.

I have basically an identical setup, except in 6.5 PRC and I love it. I wanted a to shave some weight on another build so I built a 6 CM last winter with a Stockys and I don’t like it nearly as much as the Mesa/Pure Precision stock. Gun feels very front heavy and I don’t like that at all.

After this weekend, I have the same thoughts on the Stockys. I have a VG2 in a 700. Didn’t pay much attention to the the balance because I took a factory stock off and swapped immediately. Ended up selling that gun and had the stock laying around. This weekend my brother put together his new Impact and tried the Stockys on the gun. He didn’t like it and mentioned how front heavy it was. He ended up grabbing an AG Alpine Hunter, the balance was really nice and didn’t feel front heavy at all.
