Laminate or synthetic
« on: August 15, 2005, 09:14:36 PM »
I'm ready to purchase my first handi.  I want the 270, but I'm debating between the Stainless Synthetic and the Ultra Laminate.  Any opinions would be appreciated.  Thanks in advance.

Welcome aboard!! :D  Both!!! I know that doesn't help much, though....You can get the laminated stock set later for $104...if you change your mind....

Like quick said, or you can buy the Synthetic and pick up a Ultra Varmint in a 22Mag with the same nice laminated for just a little more. You can change the stock out at will and ,assuming you would have bought the laminates latter on, get a 22Mag for around $50.

That sounds like a really great idea, cept Sports South doesn't have any .22mag Ultras and hasn't for quite some time, to the dismay of many who are looking to buy em. :(

Perhaps we should compile a list of the ones they don't have and take a pole as to how many are waiting on their rifle. I think H&R/NEF needs to expand. Obviously they are having a hard time keeping up with product demand. Hopefully our friend Miss Lynch is getting somewhere with them.
It would be nice to have an update.

What we need is a link to H&R's inventory, but since they don't even keep their web site current, that probably wouldn't fly!!  :?

I like Myarmor's idea. But Quick is right. I've ben wanting one for awhile but everytime i check they are out of stock. I think the stainless and the laminate look great together. I would get the synthetic now and add the lams. later. Good caliber choice also.

O and welcome aboard.

Go with synthetic.  I just changed from laminate to the synthetic and wow what a difference, way lighter than my laminate stock.  I ordered from Choate machine and tool and I am impressed.  About $3 more than NEF but I ordered them on Saturday night (like 10pm) and they showed up UPS today :grin: .  On the max handi, fired, and I was :-D  :grin:  :) . Now need my new bullets to try and work up my yote Brush load.  110 grn hollow point at about 2100fps.

By the way nice stocks quick.

I think I'll go with the synthetic to start.  By the way how do you find out what sports south has in stock?  

Thanks for the welcome it's good to be part of such a great forum! :grin:

Check the FAQs, Sports South's link is listed in a post by Mac11700 about 2/3rds down the page.
