Is that the only Manner's you have? Wondering if you have compared it to others.

I have have an EH1 and a couple of LRHs and have a PH for a future build, like the looks and feel, buts it's going to be a while before that build is done.

I have a couple of manners right now. Sold 3 others off this year
 
Beautiful build! (and relevent to my next project)

I'm curious to know if you're happy with your cheek height on that stock. Also curious to know how well the suppressor dampens that recoil.

Thank you

How do you feel the palm swell on the Manners PH is compared to the McMillan A3 grip that McM use on most all their stocks? I have big hands, but normal length fingers, so big palm swells are not comfortable for me (think H.S. Precision). I have a new McMillan Game Warden Universal, that utilizes the A3 grip, and it's ok, just wish it was a big thinner in width for a more positive grip, especially if you're wearing gloves hunting.

Any thoughts on the Manners vs McM grips? Many years ago, I felt them side-by-side in a store, and thought the Manners was more comfortable for me, but when I got the huge discounted price on a pre-built McM GW Universal for one of my Aero Solus builds, I jumped since it was about half price of the Manners MCS-LRH stock I was wanting.
