I can get a second bead added if I want and I really haven't heard a negative thing about the a300, even from Interwebz shotgun snobs.
I did learn one thing today...I won't be needing a cheek riser if my lop is dialed-in.
Hopefully, they have one for you to look at. I'm not sure how comparable the fit is between the synthetic and wood-stocked models...I would think it would be pretty similar, but best to check it out for sure. I doubt you'll find anything bad about the A300...it's a proven action design that's been around for some time.
LOP-wise, how much are you talking in terms of being short? A thicker aftermarket recoil pad may do the trick if you end up going with the wood.
