[QUOTE="chalkeye, post: 1140371, member: 88093"] Thought I might document the progress I'm making on a DIY stock. As everyone else already figured out, the hogue stock that came with my Howa 1500 was really floppy and heavy. I'd always sort of planned to build one myself, so this was a good excuse to start experimenting. This project is already 3/4 through, so forgive me if my recollection of the process is a little bit piecemeal. The first job was bedding & stiffening the hogue, which made a dramatic improvement, particularly to shooting from a bipod. Heavy though: [IMG]http://www.rborrett.com/wp-content/uploads/IMG_5929.jpg[/IMG] Over a kilo, and pretty ugly. And plastic. And common. [/QUOTE]
