Full length 77.. laminate stock.. everyday. I find the 98 rather unattractive. & I think a bit pointless. Its like a hunting rifle trying to be a target rifle, as apposed to being a hunting rifle with an adjustable stock. Your better off with a furkanboing or what ever there called if you want a breaker. The 77 is just superb for most things.. I took mine ratting the other day.. was a bit heavy & long buy just so much fun.
The full length is so much nicer to shoot & looks better imho.

Had a few 77/ 97's and with the laminate stocks.and I currently own a very nice early mk3 77k in a tyrolean airmasters stock. But I'd go for a 98, bloody excellent rifle and definitely as accurate as a 77 nicely front weighted so no flip, easy to load even in the freezing cold and exactly as easy to tune if you want it. Plus you can adjust the stock to fit a treat. And the limited edition laminate is coming out real soon so you'll have a pretty stock too.

funny thing is I got it as part of a deal and I already had a 77 scope to match

Your 95 will be nothing like a 98. Two very different guns with two very different purposes. The stock on the 98 is head and shoulders above other HW stocks due to its adjustability and it is a pretty decent one at that. The 77 laminate is a bit of a bling . Both the 98 and 77 need tweaking to get the best out of them, the 77 needs more tweaking. The 98 is laser accurate once mastered and because of its heavy shrouded barrel is much more suited to target/FT/HFT shooting since the heavy barrel will counteract the muzzle flip due to the misalignment of the barrel to the shoulder particularly in HFT as extra high mounting scopes are of little use.
