Survivor Stock
« on: December 08, 2009, 01:47:25 PM »
Reading between the lines of a lot of posts, I'm getting that people are having accuracy problems with rifles mounted on the Survivor stock?  I'm I getting that right?

Any opinions on one stock helping accuracy more than another?

I'm glad to hear that.  My sample wasn't scientific, I just searched the forums for "Survivor" (since I've just bought one that's on the way) and it seemed like a few people thought the stock/forearm were the problem.

I often wonder how many times "accuracy problems" are the result of people who aren't great shots.  Kind of like me with a handgun - I don't need a superaccurate one, 'cause I can't shoot all that straight with one anyway.

The Survivor can be a great test bed for accuracy. Because of the design, it it very easy to target shoot one handed, ie you don't need a forend at the range; either to hold it or to rest it.
