Looks like a good setup. How does the sock fit you?

with break in. its not all its bragged up to be.

Things went well last weekend I wanted to shoot in the 170's and I shoot a 173 in the first string, the second string I just missed with 169 with a 0 for shooting the wrong target and the last string the wind came up and I shot a 159. The only problem was my bipod fell off twice all most got it fixed. This is range 117 at Marine Corps Base Camp Pendleton

Willbas,

Wondering how close to max F/TR weight are you?

I have the same stock but it's too heavy to use on either of my 700 SA's, it tips the scale at 4.79 lbs.
