Do you have one? Can't imagine anybody that has one thinking that. </div></div>
No I don't, because I used one and thought to myself 'why would anyone buy this piece of shit'</div></div>
I don't have one so I'm not biased, but its pretty obvious you're a pretty sour fella. People have these things called opinions. Your opinion is obviously negative, but that doesn't mean everyone's is. Let people like what they want to like.
With that said, for my first precision rifle build, the B&C stocks are on my list of possible stocks.
Im not one for really complaining about what I use. I just make due with what I have and have some fun sending metal down-range. </div></div>
You're right, I shouldn't use something, not like it, then tell people so. I should tell them that I loved it, dishonesty is a much better policy
Get over yourself

Re: Is everyone happy with their B&C Medalist A2
I have 2 both on savage actions and like them as they fit my budget. I paid less than $200 shipped for each. This was the area I was going to "cheap out" on for the builds. I bedded the .308 but not the .223 The .223 definitely needs a skim bedding. Yes they have their draw backs and I do not think they are as good as the others mentioned in this thread. If I could afford better I would buy better, but with a little work they are functional.
pyplynr I really like the work you did on your stock. Looks like a winter project.

CL1KKL4C, can you explain how you did that light texturing on the fore end and grip? thanks.

I have a MCM A-5LA & MCM A-4 SA and have to say if i did it again i would get the B&C Metalists instead - way cheaper, aluminum bed, and from the front of the action back it 95% matches my A-4

Re: Is everyone happy with their B&C Medalist A2
I've had the A2 Medalist for about 2 months now, and the flat bottomed wide forearm is too awkward for me to hold while shooting it off hand.
A couple of days ago, I decided that I was going to modify the forearm and sanded the sides flat. Then it felt too skinny while holding it.
I am reforming the forearm to make it a little thicker and more rounded so its more comfortable to hold and also slimming out the vertical grip just a bit.
If you are shooting bench rest or strictly off the bipod, I think its a fine stock, its ergonomics become more of an issue when shooting from other positions.
