thumbhole vs traditional stocks
I'm checking out the Savage varminter rifles and like the looks of the thumbhole stocks. However, having never shot a thumbhole stock rifle, I'm wondering how they leave your hand feeling after a long day at the range. This isn't an issue with varmint rifles, but will a thumbhole stock on a large caliber rifle damage the ligaments in your hand with the recoil? Will length of pull and sight position be the same with a thumbhole vs traditional rifle?
