I'm looking to upgrade my stock on an older Rem 700 LTR, I'd like to stay with something that's not super heavy, or expensive as I have plenty of those options already. I definitely want to stay under 4lbs and just overall not have a super bulky stock with an adjustable cheek rest. I actually wish I still had the old factory LTR stock, at some point I replaced it with a thicker version with a very wide forearm and it's never really been a good fit for it.

So far I've been looking at:
MDT Field Stock - (can't seem to find any detail on the "V block" as far as how much support it gives the action, but it seems like the leader so far)
Oryx sportsman is a bit heavy
Magpul Hunter - not a fan of the grip angle
Magpul Pro Lite - heavier than I'd like to go
KRG Bravo - possible contender, I actually had an old first gen of the bravo on this for awhile, but it's ergos were just not "right". I also was not at all impressed with the 10/22 version of the Bravo

Just thought I'd see what other recommendations others might have for slimmer options with an adjustable cheek rest. I know there's a variety of "two piece chassis options from MDT etc. where you run an AR stock on the rear. Haven't looked into them too much, don't really want an exposed metal forearm, and it just seems like they are probably going to be on the heavy side.

Thanks
 
Doesn't' seem like the UC/UC-Plus would fit the budget at well over $1000 before mods. Also I definitely want something with a more vertical grip angle that gets my stubby fingers to the trigger.
 
No exposed metal chassis, vertical grip angle, think you’re looking at KRG Bravo, MDT XRS or field stock, Grayboe offerings, GRS offerings,

I can only comment on Bravo and XRS. Both wonderful. But you don’t like the Bravo.

I don’t know anything about Grayboe or GRS stuff. Maybe someone else will jump in.
