Traditional is more versitile. A thumb hole is only good for turkey hunting.

Emerald Ghost

Synthetic = less weight

What are you going to use this shotgun for? (bird shooting, duck hunting, turkey hunting, home protection, etc...)



What make and model is shotgun is this stock going on? (Remington 870, Mossberg 500, Benelli M2, etc...)



Answer these two questions because they both will matter a great deal.

i am goin to use it to shoot skeet and it is goin on a reimington 855 or sometin like that:doh

Jason

I'll answer some of them ??? fer him....He's got an 870 but was wanting a camo stock, but then I found Boyds custom stocks and they are AWESOME stocks...He liked the tactical stocks that can be adjusted but fer the comfort and shock absorbing would probably go to the thumbhole stock. He will be using it to hunt birds/deer, and shoot skeet so there will be a variety of ways he'll be using it.

Thanks fer all the responses fer Logan.....:letsdrink

Traditional is the way to go for shooting skeet and hunting......The problem with a thumbhole

stock is that the shotgun can only be shot for the rh/lh side depending on which one you buy.

Shooting a rh thumbhole stock hurts your lefthand when shooting it lefthanded........on a gun

that has some recoil.....Wood or synthetic works well.......AK style or th may look tacticool

but.....They are not practical......

For skeet the thumbhole or ak style is not practical. You need more of a traditional type stock some people do modify traditional stock with adjustable combs and recoil reducers.Like this mine has an adjustable comb to raise and lower point of impact.

For what you want to use the gun for I wouldn't dream of using any kind of thumb hole or vertical grip type of stock.



A thumb hole stock on a shotgun is really only practical from a sitting position (turkey and some deer).



A vertical grip stock (AK style) is really only practical on a tactical shotgun. (home defense)



Stick with the "regular" stock and you will be much much happier. They are much more practical and much more versatile.
