I have also been looking at these stocks. I was wondering how off handed shooting would be with this stock? Is this a good hunting stock for deer, or a setup stock for yote and other predators. thanks Kejones1
 
It's a little on the heavy side but is very functional; you can go for the 90% carbon fiber to reduce weight somewhat. If you like a thumbhole grip then it is very nice indeed.
 
I learned how to shoot 3 position smallbore with an Anschutz free rifle and became addicted to thumb hole stocks. I've got a bunch of T5As on custom 308 and 260s. The stock is very "linear" and shoots offhand very well. It is heavy and the 90% carbon option is worth considering.

Here's a pic of a Chad Dixon custom, with heavily modified T5A



hope this helps

I just finished a build using a Manners T5A. I really like the feel and cant wait to get out and put some rounds down range.
