[QUOTE="Ridgerunner665, post: 710067, member: 12660"] I know a guy that makes custom stocks (Brush Creek Rifles)...he is pretty darn good at it. [url]http://www.first285.com/gunstock/[/url] ...he has another page somewhere, but I can't seem to remember how to get there. This is what he says about it... Laminate stocks are as stable as fiberglass...[B]IF[/B]...it has no more than 3-5 layers of wood. Stocks such as most of Boyds with 13 (?) layers...those are OK, and look nice...but are not as strong as a 3 layer stock. What he says makes sense when you look at how the action is secured to the stock...2-3 holes right down the middle. EDIT: In case any of you decide to call him...I don't think the phone number on that webpage is any good now...I have his cell # but I'm not gonna put it here without his permission. [/QUOTE]
