    I walked into a shop on my lunch break a couple of weeks ago and barely had to touch the stock and it smacked the barrel. You could bloody near sneeze on it and it'll hit the barrel it was so flimsy

    Pretty much standard practice with all and any of the sub 1k synthetics rifles. I handled a bunch before I got the 6.5 and they were all as bad as each other. Apparently an easy fix with some forend fill and a carbon arrow shaft, but that seemed like hard work so I brought a laminate
