    Pros and cons of each model??

    I like the thumbhole when just foolin around shooting on a bench. Very comfortable and shoots well. However, for deer hunting, I MUCH prefer traditional stocks.
    #1 Thumb safety is hard to reach on t-hole. Have to remove hand from stock to hit it.
    #2 Dedicated right or left handed. I shoot both ways, depending on which side of me the deer might be coming from, etc.
    #3 Not good for stalking, in my opinion. Pulling up, hitting the safety and shooting a running deer in the swamp or woods just doesn't seem doable to me.

    Other than that, I like them.

    I'd have to agree with that assessment. I really like my thumb hole stock, but it is a pure target rifle. I wouldn't want to have to maneuver and shoot with it.
