    My Vixen wouldn't look right with a carbon stock. I can understand in this day and age why you might, but nah, not for me. Blued and walnut all day long on a rifle of that era 210879

    F class is 223 and 308. 223 does ok at 1000. Pretty much the same drop as 308 depending on projectile, just more affected by the wind. I've been well outclassed by an 80-something year old with a 223...
