Hm, good information, thank you. I'm being quickly persuaded out of my initial rifle plan but I am still looking for something very similar to this stock regardless of what rifle I pick. The ergos look on point for me, in addition to being lighter weight and stiffer. I wonder if there are...
Last note before driving and then eventually reading, the ONLY detraction I have with .223 is that I know some places preclude it's use. I'm going to need to research where specifically and then weigh my likelihood of travel to those places. In FL we can take deer with .223 so it's still an...
Holy crap. Great find man, I appreciate it. I'm heading to work but if I can find some down time you gave me some great reading material to learn from.

Good evening from Florida's west coast. Unlike many, I have no background in hunting and I'm looking to change that as an adult. My personal goal is to learn how to hunt and process my own game in '24 and get out west for an elk hunt in the next few years before hitting 40 (or even for my 40th)...
Bit of an old topic revival but I was wondering how this project turned out. This is exactly the combination of rifle and stock I had in mind for a lightweight packable rifle and I'm very curious about how it's treated you.
