Tell me about the Howa Lightning's stocks that Whittaker sells...any other choices except the spongy Hogues?
All I've seen of the new'ish stuff is a Hogue Overmolded rubbery soft stock, but at Darriks prices of $329 it really is a bargain if you don't have to replace the stock, and I've seen a dribble of Wby VG II stocks ever so often at around a $100 that IMO are decent enough to live with until the rubber touch pads fall off.
