Manners stock

I prefer the MCST with ELITE shell.

Is that the OD green color from Manners?

No that was actually custom cerakoted by my gunsmith. It was Coyote tan with black and tungsten speckles

EH2 I just got in the other day for my 22 Creedmoor build.
Custom Color OD Green and Light Grey

If it were me, I would go with EH1 or T. I was in your in boat a few weeks ago and went with the EH1. The best thing to do is go to your smith and handle a few different ones and make sure decision. That's what I did.

A Manners T at 1.75" end width is way too wide for a #3 barrel contour. I have a Bartlein #3B (light heavy contour) in a MCS-T. If the barrel were any bit narrower it would belong in an EH2.

One thing to add about the Manners Elite carbon fiber. I've done a bunch of DIY bedding jobs on custom stocks... One huge plus for carbon fiber (Manners at a minimum) is that you can bastard file and sand with #400 grit paper anywhere along the barreled action edges to make all of the height relationships perfect. Finishing with #400 and a bit of spit matches the original finish so nothing else to do.

Specifically, I was bummed when a stock's front tip of the safety channel ended up 3mm high in relation to the gun metal (Defiance action). Contacted Manners on whether I could file and sand without removing too much carbon fiber... Got a prompt e-response to go for it, no worries. Too cool!

You don't want an EH-3 or EH-4. EH-3 has a very long grip to where I couldn't hardly touch the vertical portion and the trigger at the same time. EH-4 fore end is too short.

Manners makes nice stuff, but they take forever. For hunting rifle I prefer benchmark Ibex and axial precision designs and AG composites would get you something comparable to a EH-1 or EH-1 quicker and probably cheaper.

Have you looked into the JCS Composite stocks, they are light weight and seem to be very durable

I have a couple eh1s i like and a few mcmillians also really like.
Just got a axial precession carbon hunter and might like it more then the eh1s

Have you had a chance to shoot the AP? I’m weighing between it and an EH1.

Not a lot, been swamped with work with the Covid mess and turkey season stops most other things. Only really tested loads some with it and remember its on a VERY little recoil 22br. I do like it but its a definite different feel then the EH1 and it becomes such a personal thing and very hard with out getting behind them
