Maybe I'm missing the whole point, but if not..... why not buy a stock from McMillan, mount a good lite scope and shoot the durned thing in Standard...... like this:

I've got a monster Hart barrel on my position rifle, but with the McMillan Master silhouette, it still made weight..... although I may sell that stock if I continue my one-gun ways..... :D

Unfortunately, you are missing the whole point. The adjustable stock is what makes the FWB, and the other rifles like it, so cool. I have a very nice Anschutz 54.18 MSR Standard rifle that I love, and I won't improve my scores one bit with the FWB.

Still, I need rule changes so I can shoot it after Pat buys it for me. :mrgreen:

Not to worry Dustin; I'm sure that by the time Pat buys it for you the rules will have changed.
