[QUOTE="JimmyO, post: 2029903, member: 93729"] I suggest watching the following video of Sako making their carbon fiber stocks. [MEDIA=youtube]JiDDkqeeEDY[/MEDIA] To duplicate their exact process would likely be cost prohibitive, but it provides some great insight on what could work.. Adopting their method of using a CF sleeve over the foam core, rather than CF sheets, is going to make the stock exponentially stronger. What I am having a hardest time envisioning is how to get adequate overlap of the CF sheets when using a two piece mold. If you don't have the overlap, you essentially end up with an epoxy seam running the entire length of the stock. I would be very fearful that long term recoil could end in catastrophic failure.
