Title: Choate stock
Post by: Coasthunterjay on August 30, 2008, 07:24:21 AM

So what is everyones advice on getting a choate shooting stock on a magnum rifle?

High power Mag caliber plus choate equals alot of pain? possably? i like the style but not sure i would like to take repeated shots from one out of a big shot.

What are all your thoughts from those who have one and have had one?

I had a choate, but not on a magnum.
Overall it was a decent stock--no nearly as flexy as many of the synthetics on the market today....could still see casting lines, though.

I didn't find it all that comfortable for shooting offhand--I ultimately sold it.
It did looks pretty "tacti-cool" though.

I'm sure they come in different weights and with different recoil pads so as far as the ouch factor you could definitely make it reasonable.
