I hunt the hell out of my wood stocked rifles! From the deserts of Pima County Arizona for Couse Deer and Desert Mule Deer, to the Desert of of Maricopa County Arizona for Desert Mule Deer, to Sanora Mexico, to the Arizona Strip to the Kaibab, to the Paunsigaunt, to the Colorado Rockies, to Wyoming plains, to Kansas…
Wood looks nice but I hate it on a working, using, or hunting rifle. Wood is great for a showpiece though. If you’re wanting a showpiece I can’t help you.
The only stock maker I knew died and I’m kicking myself for not getting one of his pieces.

Not trying to be rude but I’ve never owned a synthetic stocked rifle that I used to hunt with other than a Ruger Mini-30 that I used for Javelina…
Most of my Winchesters still look great after years and years of hard hunting! My nephew took my 264 Super Grade and took his first deer, a 105” Couse, at 510yards in Catron County New Mexico!
I’ll take the classics all day long over the so called new tech improvements lolI find wood to be a pain in the you know what.
Especially when going from hot and dry to wet and moist. They look nice but not worth the trouble they cause. There’s better just like some cartridges are better. I’ll take newer cartridges and technological improvements most times when it comes to firearms.
Do I like the look and feel of wood? Yes I do. If I get one of Patrick Holehan’s rifles I’ll have it in Bastogne Walnut but I’ll also have a McMillan stock for hunting.
To each their own.I’ll take the classics all day long over the so called new tech improvements lol
