I know, Magpul updated their PRS, I know LMT has a variant, I know LuthAR has something, Just looking for some current feedback on whats out there
Thanks

I still run an ACS on my precision/Recce build. It works fine for me and I haven't given any thought beyond curiosity to newer offerings. Updated PRS is very heavy, but would probably be my choice for pure benchrest or prone long range where lugging a heavy rifle around is not part of the use. I hunt with this rifle, too, and the ACS is about as heavy as I want to go.
The adjustability of the LuthAR is attractive, but the cheekweld on the ACS is just about optimal for me now.
The ACS friction lock is pretty tight, but there was a very tiny bit of wobble. I just put a small strip of Velcro (the felt part) on the top inside of the stock before sliding it on the receiver extension and it is extremely tight now. Almost like a fixed stock, but can move with effort. 99% of the time it stays in one position, anyway.
I would think LMT's DMR stock would be perfect for your MSW 6.5 conversion. That would be what they sell on the new 6.5 today, I believe.
