Boyd's Thumbhole Stocks

Hi. I am considering getting a Howa Mini 1500 223 barreled action and dropping it in one of these. What is the difference between the Featherweight and Varmit models? Thank you.

From what I can see, the difference between the 2 is the featherweight is a thumbhole and the varmint is not.

They list and show a Featherweight Thumbhole as well as a Varmint Thumbhole.

I stand corrected, I was looking at the standard 1500 Howa, the 1500 mini does come with both varmint thumbhole and featherweight thumbhole, depends which rifle the op has.
