Actually that's not right. Yes, we do put Kevlar in the KS's but against our wishes. Remember back when we first started making these stocks, Remington was owned by DuPont. Kevlar is a DuPont product. They insisted on being able to say they were Kevlar stocks, so we put some Kevlar in places where it would com,promise the quality of the stock, in small amounts just enough for them to be able to make their claims.
Most probably don't know this, but we started working with Kevlar back in 1980 when we were working with the Marines on an M-14 project. All of our research and the tests the Marines did convinced us and them that Kevlar is just not a good material to make stocks out of. The type of strengths that it possesses is not the strengths needed to make a good gunstock. Those that are were negated when laminated. Example: It's damn hard to cut a piece of Kevlar with a sharp pair of scissors and damn near impossible to machine it with endmills. But take a piece of Kevlar that has been laminated in epoxy resin and you can tear in two with your fingers. The resin makes the fibers so brittle it loses it's tear strength.
So to answer the question. KS fill is a special mixture of the materials we use specifically designed to produce a stock that weighs 1lb 10-12 ounces. It will not contain Kevlar.
