Get the stock now, then (no way you'll get to go out in the shop and dink around with rifles after that gremlin starts crawling around....).
You can get laminate stocks pretty inexpensively if you do the beding, final shaping, and finishing. There is something about doing your own work that is satisfying.
But, the other stocks are worth considering - don't give too much credance to people who say all Hogue stocks are a downgrade when they don't distinguish between the aluminum bedded models and the all nylon ones...
... and, if you want a nice custom stock, MPI is a little nicer than McMillan.
