RE: why synthetic stocks?
Practical on both sides of the coin - manufacturer's can produce a cheaper end user product and the end user has a product that is practical and take less care.
Personally I like wood better but can't deny the practical benefits of synthetics either. I have both but my most used rifles are wood or laminate stocked...the only exception my Rem 700 MLS. It been a gem the only thingI have done is reduce the trigger pull. |
RE: why synthetic stocks?
ORIGINAL: wabi I really do not find them ugly - I find them functional especially in the weather that I hunt in. For show, I would much rather have a beautiful wood stock on the gun, but I am not sure I would want to submitt it to the wear and tear of hunting in the rain, snow, sun and cold. |
RE: why synthetic stocks?
I have a Marlin 30-30 that has a wood stock on it. Many years ago a friend of a friend borrowed it for a whitetail hunt, when I got it back it had a lot of scratches on both the forearm and stock. Since then all the guns I have bought (except the GPR and the new White Laminate) have been synthetic stocked. I don't have to worry about scratches and they don't hang on the wall so they don't have to look good, just function good.
