I know the Biesen's are highly regarded, and obviously do top-drawer work in all regards, but I've honestly never liked the geometry/lines of their stocks.
When Jim Cloward came out with his Pacific Research stock, he just put a Biesen on a pantomime and created the molds exactly from a Biesen original. I had two, and could never warm to them.
I agree. They are obviously beautiful rifles, but not my cup of tea.
Never have liked fluer de lis patterns either.
