only time will tell if it stays on or hardwood one goes back on...balance,yeah it definately feels better without suppressor.....will see.
one thing is for sure....when I find rifle getting too heavy,taking bull barreled ,laminate stocked 22-250 for next trip puts things back into perspective.

What did you use Balsa or Cedar?
