It looks like the HNT26's ugly step child.

It Looks pretty nice, its got more on the butt for support then the hunt26(still not enough).

In the short video that I have seen the potential dealbreaker was it looked like a full wrap pistol grip, with no design to allow for a same side or neutral thumb rest near the safety. I won't a stock/chassis system that i can't have a good non wrap around grip.

I haven't seen the hunt 26 in person, but it looks like at least it has a cut out to allow for a same side thumb position.

I looked up "backlight chassis" (its name) on google and a video from yesterday or something came up with him showing the stock, assumingly at SHOT show.

Yea the thumb notch for the hnt 26 is a huge plus. When I saw no thumb shelf on this one I was surprised as that's also a deal breaker to me. Also the forend and how it carries is also what I look for now after carrying a squared aluminum forend XLR style vs rounded carbon of the hnt26, the hnt 26 carries so much more comfortably imo esp with the 3 rd flush mags. Not sure about this one as there is a lot going on with the forend
