Product Description
Hogue revolutionary O.M. Series stocks (Pat. Pending) are made similar to their popular rubber grips. Constructed by molding a super strong, rigid fiberglass reinforced stock that precisely fits the rifle action. This small "stock" or "Skeleton", is then completely overmolded with the same rubber compound used on Hogue grips. The Skeleton or insert, as it is called, chemically as well as mechanically adheres to the rubber resulting in a permanent bond between the rubber and the insert. The super strong insert not only gives the stocks their strength but the precise molded dimensions provide a perfect drop in fit of your rifle action. OverMolding with rubber is superior in every way and provides the ultimate in a comfortable, non slip, super smooth attractive finish, that is durable and extremely quiet. All the following custom features come at prices comparable or below any other standard synthetic stock on the market. Hogue stocks incorporate every desirable feature a fine rifle stock should have and by adding unique Hogue touches they have created a much superior and unique stock compared with anything on the market today. Features include a sleek straight comb, palm swells and a "varminter" style forend which are treated with a unique "cobblestone" texture. Hunters especially will be attracted to the incredible quietness of these stocks coupled with lightweight, superior non-slip comfort, and accuracy. Center fire rifle stocks all come equipped with the finest in recoil pads. Hogue recoil pads are formulated and molded from a "super cushion" blend of recoil reducing materials that rivals and even surpasses any other pad available. SPECIAL material coupled with computer designed, internal cushion structure provides outstanding recoil control and shooting comfort. All center fire bolt-action models come standard with aluminum pillar Bedding. Pillar Bedding is normally a gunsmith installed custom option costing over $100.00.

Installation observations:
- The forearm liner (transferred from factory wood stock) was a bit awkward to install in the Hogue. The trigger end snaps into plastic tabs on the new stock. I needed to use a flat head screw driver to manipulate a tab while pushing the liner in. I exerted an uncomfortable amount of pressure and heard a violent pop. Honestly, I was surprised I didn't break any of the plastic tabs. I advise caution. It snaps in nice and tight. But I won't take it out again for fear of breaking the tabs.
- The trigger group fit is very snug. I had to mash it firmly to set it all the way in.
Stock observations:
- Feel: In my opinion, the increased width and texturing on the forearm and grip are nice improvements. The texturing is just about prefect – not too aggressive. It did not snag when raking the stock across my shirt. But I don't have a single point sling to test it adequately in that configuration.
- Weight:
Factory wood: 2 pounds, 3.625 ounces (without forearm liner);
Hogue: 2 pounds, 1.125 ounces (with forearm liner).
- Length of pull: Hogue is about a ¼ inch longer. The Hogue has a stiffer butt pad, so that may give it a little more length as well.
- Balance: The Hogue is front heavy. The point of balance for the wood stock is just behind the grip. On the Hogue, it is just in front of the grip. Therefore it may be a bit more fatiguing to shoot off hand. For me, this is the only real negative and reason I took away a star.
