Any experience with Richards Microfit Culberson prone stock?

I want to build a .223 bolt Prone/xtc gun on a Remington Model 7 action I have. Since Gary Elisio does not make a chasis that will fit a model 7 ( I have asked) I am looking at other stocks. Came across these and was wondering if anyone had any experience using this stock as a Prone or XTC highpower gun? I know that I will have to outfit it with an anschutz rail and other hardware, but what I am more worried about is that it has a comfortable shape for my trigger/bolt hand in rapid prone.
I have ordered two stocks from them in the past for hunting rifles, so I already know about the inletting required and slow order/shipping time.
 
I too have had hunting stocks from Richards and have used a Culbertson for a match rifle. I only wished that I had asked them to leave a bit more material at the bottom of the pistol grip. Ask for that when ordering. Beyond that it worked well and I would go that route again if I ever need to build another (I have three match rifles at the moment). I installed the forend rail, thumb screw cheekpiece and butt plate hardware without incident. I know a couple of other shooters in SoCal who use them as well and they shoot outstanding scores.
Best of luck with your project!
