By Weatherby stock you mean the "pimp stock"? I have had a grand total of one medalist..I think it is a very good stock and abetter design then the H&S precision. It doesn't require glass bedding if you are willing to torque the action screwsdown correctly. If not just skim bed it and tighten it normally. I had a custom 700 barrelled action laying around that I threw in one and it shot lights out with it and is very accurate. I would use a 700 design stock for a 700 action and see no benefit to the Weatherby stock design. If it has one flaw it is the weight , they are a little heavier then most.
