[QUOTE="JJMoody, post: 1120105, member: 89869"] Ok, to piggyback the topic of improving a flimsy stock, I have a 340 wby in MKV stainless with the Tupperware stock. I stopped in at the local gunsmith yesterday and he had some "Interesting" things to say. First off, he said he fills the hollow buttstock with spray foam insulation and epoxies a spacer and Decellerator pad to the butt, then fills in the forearm with a modeling clay and glass beds the stock clear to the end over the top of the clay. It adds sufficient weight and stiffness to the factory stock. Any thoughts? It seemed a little "junior varsity" to me and I may have bought into it a little more if he hadnt told me a few more questionable things (read this as outlandish lies- HIS 338 edge maintains 2" groups consitently and 5 Tons of kinetic energy at 2000 yds. among other things) I'll not be using his services any time soon, but what are your thoughts on the stock work?
