[QUOTE="Savage 25-06, post: 966486, member: 81453"] Stocks: Wood or Synthetics whats your choice. In my search of Stock building I ran across an article in field and stream yesterday at the doctors office. Asking the question we all do, wood or synthetic. The wood part of this comparison I did not understand because it said the water soak test, So I'll assume to take that as bad weather condition. The conclusion on this test was Synthetic being better. I myself don't agree with this for two reasons. 1. I know when synthetics get cold they are stiff, now to be honest I don't know what this would do as far as screwing with ones accuracy, except like anything expand and contract, as wood does also. 2. Is after reading the correct alignment, or truing a stock to a shooter, how does one achieve this with Synthetics. So my choice is Wood if not just for the second reason, and I don't plan on soaking my wood stock. Savage 25-06 gun) [/QUOTE]
