    Actually I drove to North Kansas City to pick up 3 stocks they built for me and I got the red carpet treatment from Tom Manners and the whole crew there. They really are some of the nicest people in the business and they run a first class operation.

    Below is a picture of the stocks, the empty stock is waiting for a barreled action to come back that is having a Bartlien M40 barrel installed.

    Great to here a positive report. Nice looking rifles there. Have shot them with the new stocks yet.

    Thank you.

    The rifle in the middle is a .300WM and my hunting rifle. I have yet to add the rail and Mark 4 scope, I may not now because the T4 stock added some weight to it. If I am going to lump it around in the moutains elk hunting I better hit the gym.

    I haven't shot them yet, I just got back at 9:00 yesterday. I plan on going to the range today though.
     
    Manners is top notch for sure. Tom has a great company and a great product and they are only getting better. 3 of my 4 precision rifles wear Manners T3s now and hopefully the 4th will soon.
     
    Cool hope they shoot lights out for you. We have rain and snow here but I have to get off this dang computer. I'm heading to the range as well. Be sure to show those bug holes later.

    Well I forgot to bring the target home from the range. The .308 shot very well, I didn't shoot the .300WM. With the .308 on a windy day I shot 15 rounds into a group that was just a little bigger than 1.5", almost all were in a group about 3/4" but I leaked three out low right that were definitely me not the rifle.
