Which stock design?

[Eloudamy]

I’d like some opinions pls. I’m planning a new build on probably a Stolle Panda action for BR type shooting. In the past, I’ve shot customized Rem’ and Savages but now I am able to choose a little more specifically what I want.

So I’m not real savvy on some of the stock designs and would appreciate your help. I’ve looked at the Shehane and Robertson designs and I now have a Stiller with a McMillian BR stock.

Can y’all enlighten me on the advantages and disadvantages of some of these?

Thanks

Short range or long range? 2 very different sets of rules.

Regarding what I do:
I can’t shoot prone any more due to a neck issue so it’s all from benches.

I enjoy some competition but have only shot Varmint BR And 1000 yard gong-type matches. I’m not super excited about paper BR but I do like, and attain 1/4 minute accuracy from my rifles.
Thx

Varmint BR is shooting at little bitty silhouettes from 200- 750 yards. Targets are about 1-minute in size and the 200 are a bit smaller.
A very fun game, BTW.

Stocks with taper in the rear like the MBR you will have to push the gun back forward to spot hits. Stocks like the ST1000 & Mcmillian Wheeler LRB with the flat bottom rear you can shoot and continue to look through the scope after the shot and see the impacts before pushing the gun back forward.

I would reach out to @Alex Wheeler for stock advice

If weight is not a factor get a stock from alex wheeler. If there is a weight limit and short range rules get a kelblys br model.

The Kelblys Klub or the KLP for short range BR

Mine is a Byers style but it's been worked, thinning it and sloping the hand area more.
16.63+- lbs with scope.

Are you doing this at HOTSA? If so, I'd be happy to let you get behind a LRB &/or a Kelbly 1M that I've modified with a Wheeler rudder and some 4" rails. Both on Pandas.

I can't make August, but I hope to make a match or two this fall.

Thanks for all the feedback and certainly welcome more. Good advice saves $$ and headaches.
I’m truly grateful for the time to respond.
