New B&C on the T3
Posted by jhopkins on August 4, 2011 at 12:46 pmJust got my B&C stock in yesterday. Im very happy with the stock, the forend is wider than the factory stock and has a better feel to it, but the barrel channel does need to be opened up a little.

That's a great looking stock. Keep us posted on how it shoots!

I was finally able to get out to the range last week to see how it shot with the new B&C stock. I can tell no difference in accuracy with the new stock. Where I can tell a difference is the rifle is much more comfortable to shoot now and the sound transfer through the hollow factory stock is now gone. I just picked up a T3 in 243win a couple weeks ago and will be buying another B&C for it also.

Did the weight change?
Who had it in stock? It seems everyone is out!

I didn't check the before/after weight, but I'm sure that its a little heavier than the plastic stock. I have my 243win set up with the same base/ring combo and both scopes are 2.5×10 Monarchs only the 243 has 50mm obj. and the 270 has 42mm obj. so they should be a real close comparison, I will weigh them both and post up #'s later.

I just put them on the scale and they both come in @ 8.0 lbs.

That's great! Light weight, shoots well, and looks good. Sounds like you have a great combo.
Now I need to call B&C to see if they'll let me sell those in our Tikka Store
