Rubber coating on stock???

[upacreek]

Does any aftermarket stocks have the rubber feeling that a sako finnlight has? The browning X-bolt comes close. Any others?

Hogue's claim to fame. Not sure if their stocks are any good though. I'm sure someone else can answer that.

I have one of the Hogue stocks with the full aluminum bed on my Rem 700 action Shilen barrel 264 Win mag and I really like it. It is a very accurate rifle and has held up really well over 5 years of hunting and shooting.

I have a custom barrel (#5 Lilja). How well are the stocks channeled for larger barrels. I considered the heavy barrel one, but I suspect it's for a target barrel.

My rifle has what I measure as the #4 magnum barrel and it has plenty of free floating room around the barrel on the varmint stock.

My Ruger Hawkeye Alaskan .375 Ruger came with a Hogue stock from the factory. Initially I bought it so cheap I figured I'd have plenty of money to put into putting it into a laminate like Ruger has many of their models in. I specifically liked the Ruger Guide Gun Laminate stock and thought it would be a great, natural fit for it.

The more I shot it however the better I liked the Hogue and thus have left it the way I got it originally.
