awesome gun

Interesting stock. You could really make the rifle fit you like a glove.
But I still have a soft spot for beautiful wooden stock.
I do like the cocking lever, and the little slug for a trigger is very interesting indeed!

Imagine putting yourself in your most comfortable shooting position where your muscles are relaxed, then making the gun fit you. Your hand, head and shoulder positions are perfect without effort. Most of the time we are having to hold our body to suit the gun. This means you can concentrate on the shot without even thinking about holding the gun. Now go get a small mortgage and buy one.

Holy smokes that much for a stock!
That's a bit of an eye opener.
I actual imagine it would be cheeper for it aluminum as the tooling machines
(mother*#$":/ another rabbit just scooted past the irony)
Um yeah the tooling machines are there, billet aluminum is going to be cheaper than laminating wood sections. The process will be fully automated.
Seems to be a lot of beauty over practically going on here. Mostly by guys who own multiple guns.
In the target shooting world that would be cutting your nose off to spite your face.
I'm betting that you guys have very nice wooden stocked rifles for your viewing pleasure.
As someone who has synthetic stocks for the practically of them but does really amire and love the feel of wood, I see your point but don't think it's a practical view towards this stock. But that is just my view

"Seems to be a lot of beauty over practically going on here"

Kruza, just because its wood dosent mean its not going to fit you.
A custom made, fitted to you, right down to the last details like the width of your hand across your knuckles stock, is a gorgeous thing indeed. In a grade 5 Turkish Walnut... There are few things better in this world!

Besides the aesthetics and beauty of polished fine grained wood, when it comes to pure fit, there is no mass produced, aluminium, light weight, jointed, bolted together adjustable stock in the world that will even come close to a well fitted, well balanced, custom made wooden stock.
And thats where the difference comes in, the mass produced ones are designed to be made cheaply, but still be adjustable to fit the masses, cheaply.
A custom made stock is a one off, hand made, carved to your exact individual height, reach, hand size, head position etc. it can even be made for a specific scope on your specific rifle to set up the scope as low as possible and have the perfect cheek weld every time. And because its custom made, you pay for that. But if its a rifle or shot gun you are going to shoot a lot, its worth it.

I had a stock custom made for my old work rifle, my .458Lott, by a brilliant gun smith.
It took him 3 months to make the stock, and I went in for numerous fittings, but when it was finished I could shoulder that rifle with my eyes closed, as quick as I could, and every time when I opened my eyes I would be staring straight through the ghost ring and at the target, 10 out of 10 times.
Crafted to be perfectly balanced, it was like an extension of my arms, it just pointed where ever I looked.
And it looked beautiful too
