[QUOTE="ducky, post: 2251293, member: 94420"] No it won't, or I should say not if you fill the entire forend. It'll make the stock about 1-1.5 ounces heavier, but shouldn't affect the balance much if any. I have almost the exact same set up but with a SS Classic FWT .30‐06 in Hunters Edge stock and it tips the scale at 1.7 ounces over 7 pounds with a Leupold 2.5-8X36 in Talley mounts. So while that the stock has a sporter inlet, not FWT. It also has something going on at the forend tip that may have come from McMillan with that defect. To put this rifle together with ordering everything new would be $1900-2000. 10 years ago when I put my rifle together I paid $1100 for the used barreled action and used McMillan stock. It may not grade excellent by NRA standards, it's an excellent rifle for high country elk and deer hunting. [/QUOTE]
