What stock would you use on a 280ai long range build?

Is it more important to be light weight for carrying, or is it more important to be a very good shooting stock?

Manners, McMillan and/or AG Composites (Mesa Precision) Manners T-3, T-4 McMillan A-3, A-4 AG Composites I have not had my hands on yet, but heard lots of good things. The vertical grip is key. It is far more ergonomic, which provides better trigger control. Most people screw up the trigger control and have zero follow-through. Seen it thousands of times now. Good thing is, it is only a brain problem, which can be fixed.

Just to make sure that it is done thoroughly, I go both ways.
