I love my Hogue! I looks and feels great, and my rifle shoots great in it.
Synth. stock: opinions please
Just wanted to here some opinions and gleen some knowledge,
What are some good synthetic stocks and where is the best place to look at pics/specs ? I think I have decided this what I want and just need to narrow it down to a couple of choices.
Ps. I have a Houge in the factory contour, I like it but want something stiffer, aslo I am looking for a .92 dia stock.
Thanks in advance
Chad

Hogue mods.
I bedded the action in acraglass. It took only a tiny bit of compound to do the job. I also put just a little bedding near the foretip of the stock to center the barrel in the channel -- not enough to really provide any extra upward pressure. The action screw was also a little long for my Adams and Bennett .920 stainless barrel, so I filed a couple of threads worth of steel off the end. As far as modifications to the stock, those are all I have found necessary. The finished rig shoots consistent five shot groups at 50 yds. of .5 inch or less -- depending on what kind of day I'm having!
I suggest you read up on the info here at RC. These guys know their stuff. They can be invaluable.
Good luck with your project!
