Thread: hunting stock design

Have been thinking of giving the home made carbon stock a go myself. Once you have your two halves how do you do the stock fill and in letting? What materials do you use?

Its a bit of a process that and the real effort is making the mold. I think West epoxies and 413 microfibre are the way to go.

It's not really a 'home made' stock unless you dig the coal and process it into carbon fiber in your garage. Like cutting a bough off a Walnut tree and seasoning it compared to buying an in-letted blank.
