[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 1678585, member: 2736"] My opinion is like others in that Laminates properly sealed are impervious to moisture and in many cases stronger than composites I would recommend that you buy the composite stock you want and do a full pillar bed and see if it is better. Save your laminate because chances are that It will still shoot better and you will want to go back to it. You will only know if you try. Years ago I started replacing all of my composite stocks because for what ever reason they all, without exception shot better. I now believe that the harmonics are better (More dampened) by the many directions of the wood grain, Solid wood doesn't dampen as good. I ended up replacing 7 stocks and as i said, they all improved some and they were bedded the same way. Just a theory, but there is a difference. I like the durability of the composites, but I like accuracy of the laminates better. Don't throw your laminate away until you know for sure. if you do reuse the laminate, be sure and seal it good before you go back with it. J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
