Nice looking hardware. I've heard about the 1000yd range they built in Ridgeway. My Dad's in the neighborhood, but mostly a shotgun shooter. I'll have to venture down there sometime and check it out.

I see Stocky's is blowing out various laminates,T-holes especially...and I nearly ordered a couple few for some Retro-esque Play Toys.

Always liked laminate looks,but laminate breakage gets old...................

All ours are going to be doing is slideing back and forth on a 40 lb front rest and rear bag.
The nice thing is you can alter the stock to "fit up" any you way you want over glass....ie the palm swell.The tooley palm swell pushes your middle finger into the back of the trigger guard.
You get smacked everytime you pull the trigger.The solution was as simple a Dremel tool and a cartridge roll.Just dont watch as the gunsmith grinds it off .
The laminate stuff is nice as you can true up and play taking off as you go,You just cant put it back on.....


dave

Cant hardley imagine you with a thumb hole laminate??
Wow...
You'll have to take a picture for me.


dave

Bright much?

Have done quite a few T-hole laminates in both rimfire and centerfire,as well as more "traditional" patterns in laminate. Cloward prolly does a T-hole best and my tastes are well shy of Lawson. I've a knack for breaking the things at the fucking wrist and have pretty much aborted laminate for that reason.

I'll greedily take laminate over all non-laminates,due to zero retention in tough weather...but bleed good synthetics,believe it or not................(grin)

..I stopped usuing wood stocked rifles in 1985....So this is a bit "off" for me.
My spotters pile.

Same as mine cept for the Rock MTU and the color.
Had a long talk with Bill Shehane at scopeusout.com.
http://scopeusout.com/custom-rifle-stocks/rutland-laminated/
What I really wanted was black and white.I was thinking it would look pretty cool.Bill says hes 66 and slowing down and already has a wearhoues full of the stuff on his sight and aint doin no more.
So I got what I got.
I still like the first one.

They grow on ya.

Been a spell,since I purposely ended up with wood that weren't laminated.

Wood is best in the fireplace.................
