I may have missed it but what type of foam do you use for the core?
Great stuff so far just to get it to expand. I have other ideas, but materials arent here yet. Air bladder is next. Got some industrial foam to throw in later for noise reduction, but don't think it will be the best way to pressurize the cf inside the form
edit: that greatstuff is a nightmare. Its like a melted marshmallow when it gets any heat or solvents. Again, just an experiment to never be used again

If you could seal the mold all up except for the but end of the stock and then have a small relief hole for pressure, I would try urethane foam. I've played with it at my buddies taxidermy studio and it will blow a taxidermy form apart if you don't have a place for it to go.
I got some of this stuff to try.

one of my best friends was a taxidermist and did mounts and said the same as you
Unfortunately I have to setup a new media blast cabinet so I can finish a christmas 7mm build for a close friend. It has taken my time from the stock project.

This is awesome! Looks like a success for the first go at it. List it in the classifieds and just add some bs jargon in the ad. "One of a kind, fully custom stock w/ aerospace grade materials". It'll sell in a matter of minutes
