Hey folks wondering if anyone has put a Boyd's laminate stocks on their Ruger American?
Just bought all weather .308 American compact and much prefer a laminate stock over synthetic. A Boyd's stock fits the bill and it would dress it up a bit. And can get in a 13.25" LOP which will work out perfect.Iknow the American has v blocks so not sure how the new stock would affect it. So if it's a lateral move accuracy wise(doesn't need to improve) that would be great. If it would hinder accuracy I won't bother. Don't plan on bedding it. This is my timber rifle,not a paper puncher. The added weight of the stock I don't consider a down side ,as the rifle will still be light. So to me as long as it doesn't mess with the accuracy it's a win,win,win No speculations please, just looking for actual experiences with Boyd's being installed on a Ruger American.
