I totally agree with you but the OP specified he wanted an ultalight stock. He appears willing to trade one feature (lightness) for another (durability). That's what make horse racing and people who prefer a creedmore over a 7mm Mag. Let the comments begin.If your going to replace the stock replace it with wood!

Like me he was probably born so long ago he has forgotten how wood swells, splits, warps, and weighs. It is hard not to admire a rifle dressed in a great piece of walnut, but it can give you fits. I am surprised Weatherby did not ask for the stock or whole rifle to be returned on the first call. My limited experience with the new Wby CS in Wyoming has been very positive.What is going on? I was gonna ask, when were you born?
When's the last time you compared a quality composite with a quality wood stock? They are not even close .The weight difference between a composite and wood is so insignificant its ridiculous to use that as an excuse. I might buy the weather resistant excuse if you think it is worth it. Here you spend over $1K for that hunting trip, you get into the mountains and drop the rifle. Oh my! it busted the stock.
I have never dropped a rifle...or a baby. I was also part of a huge field trial of M-16s, M-4s, and M-203s all synthetic and never saw a stock failure.The weight difference between a composite and wood is so insignificant its ridiculous to use that as an excuse.
