I have a Tikka T3 Stainless Lite i am building in a 243AI. So far i have only found 2 factory stocks. The Bell and Carlson Medalist, and Manners T4. The BC is $220ish plus shipping and the Manners is $515 plus shipping. Is the Manners worth the Extra $300? gun is going to be a "walking" (1/4 to 1 mile from truck) calling stick. What do you guys think?
 
I havent had a Manners stock but I have B&C and HS stocks and I prefer the B&C stocks. They both are excellent with the bedding blocks and the B&C tend to have a slimmer wrist that I prefer. I have still bedded all of mine to get a true fit. Save your money for bullets and get the B&C Medalist.
 
YES there's a reason for the diff. fit and finish is better chassis built in there is no flex in the stock. I have one of them and a mcmillan would buy either one before a b&c or a h.s.stock. plus most custom rifle maker's use manners and mcmillan they are made of higher quality material and mine get used alot
 
Around 16 weeks right now after falling behind after moving, but they are working on getting lead times down now. Mcmillan has similar lead times also. You wont find a nicer bunch of people to deal with.
