This stock is great. It is VERY solid and balances nicely, especially with a 20" barrel. I have it on a Rem 700 SPS Tactical 308. I have owned B&C, McM, and H&S stocks. People bag on Choate, but I fail to see how this stock is weaker or less durable in any way than the big 3. The texture FEELS cheaper, but is hell for stout. Texture and beauty don't make smaller groups. It is just funny to hear people bag on this Choate stock because it isn't H&S, B&C, or McM, yet they have a cheesy-feeling plastic Glock in their holsters.

As Dave mentioned above these stocks are GREAT. I also have a Remington 700 SPS Tac in 308 with 20 ". Installed without any problems and performed perfect at the range. So glad i didn't purchase any other stock. With the money saved on this it will go to better glass. Solid stock and will recommend everyone to purchase it from Tactical Works. P.S. ask for Lisa!

My first R700 308 (5R) went into an AICS. For my SPS Tac, I decided to make it a budget midrange gun and in doing so selected the Choate over the B&C A2. Glad I did. Nice heft without being overweight. Very solid with a nice meaty vertical grip angle. I just installed the Choate monopod, which is a good deal at $25. The gun shoots 0.5-0.7 MOA consistently in this stock, so it works fine. With the varmint barrel profile, the channel does get a little close to the underside of the bbl, but as long as you don't place excessive pressure on top of the stock with hard support underneath the fore end (i.e. bipod), you should be able to avoid contact.
