I'm thinking traditional, and am looking at Old Arms of Idaho for an OEM walnut stock, love the way those original stocks look.

But... I'm halfway interested in other aftermarket stocks, though not really into plastic. I could do carbon fiber, I just need a traditional profile that's not too light (right shoulder can no longer take a pounding).

I know laminated stocks are generally heavy, though they do look mighty cool. And probably soak up recoil.

Anyway, I have a couple weeks to get this done and start testing loads. There are pigs and deer that need to be ground checked come Fall here in Texas.

Thanks, Dutch
