Hi there everyone
SO I'm getting my new rifle built and I am considering reusing the Hi-Tech specialties Synthetic
Tan stock in the picture is the one, weights in at 26 ounces
Problem is with the 28" Sendero contour barrel plus the Holland brake I'm leary that the rifle is gonna be terribly muzzle heavy.
So I've been looking at different stock designs in case this stock isn't gonna work.
My main question is, for field shooting prone position using a bipod or backpack for a rest, and either shooting up hill, straight across or shooting down hill, what style stock is the most versitile the vertical grip style stocks like the A3 or a sporter style stock like the one I have. Although I have been shooting for over 20 years I have never used a tactical/vertical gripped rifle before for anything but offhand 200 yard gong shooting.
I do my own stock work so I have been toying with the idea of cutting off the recoil pad and adding a heavy epoxy ballast inside the buttstock to balance the rifle. But I'd like to hear from you guys
Thanks
