    One thing to keep in mind if you plan on going with a heavy barrel later on is that some Boyds stocks don't have enough real estate on top of the forearm to inlet for the extra girth and still keep the rails along the side. For example the Classic and Platinum have the same basic profile, but the Classic has a finger groove forearm with a narrow top while the Platinum has an oval forearm with enough space for a varmint barrel.

    ^^^True, but I have put heavy barrels on the classic as well. It works fine. THe Platinum allows for checkering all around the underside, too, though. (Checkering on the classic is just on the sides of the forearm.)
