Featherweight Stainless

I was wondering if any of you guys have or have have tried out the new Winchester Model 70 Classic Featherweight Stainless. I really like the idea of the wood stock with the weather proof stainless barrel and action. I've also heard that Winchester uses all stainless parts including for the internal parts. What do you think of this gun?

Idid a lot of research on the25 WSSM in both the stainless Featherweight and the Browning A-bolt. I was definitely in favor of the Featherweight.

When I finally got my hands on the two of them side by side I think I actually came out in favor of the Browning. This is not to imply the Featherweight was not a nice gun, only that despite my preconceived notion that I would favor the featherweight I did not.
