Shoot it as-is and see how it feels.

That depends on you. If you want to see how the other stock shoulders go to a gun shop and try one with the other stock. Part of the fun is trying different stuff. Check out the classifieds if you want to get a different stock
.204 .22lr .22wm .25acp .223 5.56 .243 .25-06 6.5x55  .308  .300wbymag  7.5x54  7.62x25 7.62x39  338-06  9x19 .38spl  9x18 .45acp . 45-70 .500s&w 12rfl 12smb 20smb  .45lc 410smb .22hornet .280AI    Ask not what your country can do for you BUT what can YOU do for your country

If you ever try the thumbhole you'll love it. My ultra varmint thumbhole .243 feels and shoots great!  I'm even getting a thumbhole for my sidekick muzzleloader! To each his own though.
Life's too short, buy more guns and hope you can find ammo to shoot them!

After carrying my 30-30AI last fall with the laminated straight stock, I found I don't like it, would rather have the pistol grip, it just carries better, I seldom use a sling.
