[QUOTE="benchracer, post: 843170, member: 22069"] +1 I prefer wood. My carry rifles all have wood or laminate stocks. My bench/target rifles have fiberglass/bedding block stocks. I have found that a properly bedded/sealed laminate stock will perform just as well as all but the higher end fiberglass stocks (HS, McMillan, Manners), costs less, and sometimes weighs less. I also like the feel of checkered wood in my hands. No synthetic can match that feel. I have wanted to try an Accurate Innovations wood stock with a bedding block for a long time. Can't bring myself to drop the coin, though. I guess I am just a traditionalist at heart. I don't like stainless either. [/QUOTE]
