It's a LUTH-AR stock
 
I promised some load data. I'm using a new magneto speed chronograph and using new Lapua 6.5 Grendel brass, IMR 8208 XBR powder and a 95gr Vmax. My barrel is a 20" 6 groove.

29gr - Avg speed=2727 ES 26 SD 15
29.5 - Avg speed=2787 ES 8 SD 5
30gr - Avg speed=2830 ES 32 SD 18

Accuracy was decent, but nothing spectacular as these are the first 15 rounds through the gun. Avg accuracy was about 3/4". On my barrel, the 30gr was the best group, but will do some more testing later this week.
 
Thanks Scott. I plan to try some 95 NBT's in mine with 8208, so that data should help.

**Edit: I was confusing my Nosler bt's, I have 100gr, They don't make a 95 in 6.5
