[QUOTE="Tac-O, post: 1901067, member: 109994"] I actually do want the fore end stiffer. As stuff as it can possibly get. That way there is less likely to be a poi shift when resting the foreend on something or putting tension on the sling. That's part of the reason the fieldcraft and nulas work; the stock is super stiff. But, I definitely don't want to add a pound of anything to it. I'd like to keep it lightweight and low cost. So, I was thinking possibly shredding up some old carbon arrows into a mess of fibers. Balsa would work great too. Even if I did just use styrofoam, I think the surrounding bedding would stiffen it up quite a bit. I may have to go styrofoam! I'm almost out of this box of 150gr Sierra's, so I'll have to try some 180gr speers next that I already have. [/QUOTE]
