I saw these advertised on Cleavers fitted to some Howa's. Without delving into the pros/cons of Howa's what do you think these stocks are like?

Other than some of the colour options being a bit 'bright', they look pretty interesting. However I wonder how well they they they fit once adjusted to suit.
Anyone seen or handled one in the flesh?

Re: Boyds AT ONE stocks
Did a bit more research and determine the check-piece and LOP is adjusted via the buttons on the stock...I had originally thought they were decorative.
Additionally the stock comes with hard plastic grip and fore-end as standard. "hunter" pieces.
You can buy "target" pieces consisting of a hogue overmolded pistol grip (different grip shape) and a beavertail style fore-end.
Interestingly, the stock comes standard with a quick detachable swivel that mounts on either side of the stock (see hole near foreward of the cheek piece button).
Nicely priced in the US at $189USD but obviously over the $100USD price, which limits our ability to order directly. Seems to range around $400-440 locally dependent on rifle fitment.
Yeah, it's not traditional but it looks cool.
As priced by a Cleavers it's a better bargain if you buy one of the complete Howa packages with it...

But one if you find it aesthetically pleasing but not convinced it fills a ‘need’.

Yes, looks cool but I have no real NEED for one at the moment and am struggling to justify the price.trevort wrote:But one if you find it aesthetically pleasing but not convinced it fills a ‘need’.

As I said, it’s an easier justification if purchased with a rifle.

Re: Boyds AT ONE stocks
I bought one for my CZ455 in 22LR but I won't use it as I prefer their tactical/varmint stock, so ill list mine for sale soon. I don't like the shape or the feel,so it's a costly error for me.

Re: Boyds AT ONE stocks
At least your smart enough to admit it and move on. There are many who would think what they had spent and force themselves to use it
