The barreled action is sitting next to the unfinished all carbon stock. Hope to be at the range by midweek!

The stock is actually quite unbelievable. Very light and rigid. The barrel is the best looking carbon wrapped barrel I have seen, great fit and finish. I have heard nothing but good things about this barrel. Anxious to get her to the range.
 
Nice i have rhe paradigm element stock which is the a5 adjustable version. Love that thing to death. 2lbs as a full adjustable a5 with dbm which would normally weight like 3.5-4.5

That's a beautiful stock! Super light, holy cow. I have had one paradigm barrel, shot like crap unless you cold bored every round. 6.5 prc chambered by a good smith. Factory ammo no good. My handloads that had single digit es, 2 moa at 100y. They gave me a new barrel, but still in the safe. I orderd 2 other barrels from them back in March, still don't have em. I hope you have better luck with them than I have!
 
How much is the stock? Their website says $1650 for install. I'm looking for an UL stock with a vertical grip and most are around 21 to 22 oz without recoil pad.
 
I can't yet speak to the accuracy of this barrel yet but the customer service has been A+. Yes 1650 is the price. The bedding on this stock is all integrated carbon, no bedding blocks set in foam. Will hopefully post some range results soon.
 
WOW , Love your set up!! My Weatherby Ultralight, in .270 Win ,24 inch Krieger S/S Fluted Barrel ,is old school by comparison. Rifle weighed 5 and 3/4 pounds. The Factory Ultralight Stock, I think is a Bell and Carlson Kevlar. It was a Flat Grey /Black speckle, now Hydro dipped Snow Camo .This is strictly a Whitetail Deer Rifle, My favorite .
