When I heard Pic Rail I figured I would see a black plastic stock. Shocked to see wood. Frankly, it looks really nice to me.

Watching this one too. My current "bench" is a narrow cabinet I removed from a laundry area. Much too small. As to DF vs. cedar, the DF will be much more durable. While it is considered a softwood, cedar can be more like "spongewood" if I may. Same goes for redwood, which I love...

A 60 or so grain bullet is likely the heaviest that can be shot in a rifle with standard twist. Shooting 70 or more grain projectiles requires a shorter twist to properly stabilize them. What is a “standard twist” for a .223 anymore? I believe my rifle has a 1/9 inch twist. No stabilization issues....
