On my 38-55TM with the BC type stocks I liked the more traditional look, but was really quite surprised how much better the Ultra Varmint (cin. Lams first) and now the Topper Deluxe Classic stocks have more straight back recoil and holds 'on' better. For me things 'tightened up' a bit in both offhand and bench over the original.
The palletwood stocks will be similar in architexture to these, just determine, as mentioned, if you want the Monty Carlo for scope use or low comb for 'iron sights'.
BTW, Im long of arm and neck so the extra length of the recoil pad equiped buttstocks work well. At first they seemed a bit too long, but if I grab the hardplate PW stock rifle it now seems short. If you are shorter of reach than me you may prefer the hardplate.
