Everyone wanting to modify a hunter stock owes Geo Rhode (Chicken) a vote of thanks -- he has just been able to get NRA to make a decision that I haven't been able to get them to agree to for 2 or more years.
Greg C has just told us in a conference call that it will be permissible (IS permissible as of NOW) to add wood, bondo, whatever to your existing stock in order to make it fit you better and, as long as you don't violate the requirement that it has to 'look like a hunting style stock', you're OK.
IOW, those modifications won't be considered 'attachments' that are prohibited unless they cause the stock to veer into what would reasonably be considered a target style.
We'll formulate a letter to the committee that will detail this and Greg will submit it for the next mtg.
This will be the NRA position at Nationals...and should set the standard at other matches.
It should make the tech officers' job easier!
