Re: any updates on new chassis systems since SHOT?

Huh?
The Ashbury that we looked at in the GAP booth was a boat anchor. It was at least as heavy as my AI. Granted the action that was in it sported a heavy contour barrel, but the package still did not appear to be lightweight.
I didn't manage to make it to the Ashbury booth since I was short on time. I am not sure what the actual quoted weight is.
I was told the RACS (Remington Chassis) would be available Q3, but I didn't ask if that was for LE/Mil or Civilians. MSRP was around $1800 for the chassis.
The JP MOR Chassis was pretty neat looking. I didn't do a lot of handling of it, but it's simple and straightforward.
McRee's has some new features on their chassis that are pretty slick. Looking forward to doing a review on one soon.
The XLR Chassis should be nice, but I have yet to actually touch one. I am getting closer though.
I believe the JAE is still vaporware, but I also did not get by their booth.
Really if you are considering McMillan, then Manners is the other option you should be considering. If you want a chassis, then you should not be going with a McMillan. They are different stocks with different features and feel.
