    I have an ACS that at one point I did try to see if it was worth filling to the brim with all the little things I thought I might need. Weighed it and then gutted it and weighed it. Between the shit I stuffed in the ACS and in the grip there was a 3/4 POUND difference. That's a lot. Any more I just run a few batteries in the stock and a couple extra pairs of ear pro and that is pretty much it. Now I still love the ACS, it fits me very well and I would buy it again, but storage can be a little over rated. Best advice in my opinion is see if you can't try both and go from there, fit and feel should be the top priority.

    I have one ACS, one STR, one MOE, and a Colt/Rogers super stock. I definitely like the STR over the ACS. I tried the MOE with the 1/2" cheek riser. That was too high. I have a 1/4" riser on order. If I like the MOE with the 1/4" riser, then I would probably prefer the CTR with a 1/4" riser.

    I almost bought the STR but ended up buying the CTR to go on the BCM I just order.

    I'm also in the camp that feels the STR is possibly the best stock on the market.

    I replaced the moe stock on my ddm4 with a str back in February and never looked back. I absolutely love it, and wish I could use it on my issue m4 for deployments.

    STR and B5 Sopmod tie for number one in my book. CTR close second. The ACS-L feels good, but I think it's just plain ugly.

    this. i run the str only because the b5 was not available to try when i bought my stock. i personally feel these are the best two stocks on the market period.

    I guess I'm the odd man out. I didn't like the STR. It was too wide for me and the angle of the buttpad didn't fit me well. I do enjoy my Vltor iMod and B5 Bravo though. I also have a MOE which I don't care for much.

    STR all day long, for all the above reasons.
