Has anyone used the Bell & Carlson Medalist for their Savge long action ? Opinions ? It supposedly has a full length metal skeleton. Would the barrel channel handle a lite varmint contour barrel ?
Thanks

yes it has a full length aluminum skeleton. Yes the stocks are very well made. I did this vary thing 2 months ago and yes it will handle a light varmint BUT I will say this... I had to open the channel up really really wide and deep in order to free float 2 business cards. The rifle is awesome BUT I wouldn't do it again with a light varmint contour, maybe a sporter heavy contour.

P.S. this is assuming you are speaking about the medalist classic
