[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 1183780, member: 2736"] +1 Like you, I would like to have seen all the different stock materials used for a good comparison. I feel that the molded (Tupper ware) stocks are the worst and did some test of my own years ago to see what they did when heat was applied to one side (Set in the sun to measure warping) and did not like what I saw, so I wont use them at all. I would have liked to seen some of the high end composite stocks tested but I did like the use of the two piece stock for comparison because it eliminated the issues of bedding and fitment. For comparisons, the load cell is a good instrument and is very consistent, but for shock/rapid measurements it is not very accurate unless it is very expensively made and given time to settle down. The other issue I have is the quality of the laminate has to be determined. A quality laminate is not only very strong and ridged, it is for all practical purposes weather proof. like everything else, a poor laminate might test differently. Just more comments to keep the post active. J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
