Boyds stock weight?

[Renico]

I was wondering how heavy a boyds laminate stock is in difference to my Brno ZKK which is very heavy. Are the stocks lightweight or heavy?

Personally I think a X-bolt Hunter and Tikka t3 hunter are lightweight wood rifles. What is the comparison of these to a boyds stock?

And is the thumbhole stucks a lot lighter than the normal classic stocks?

Thanks

Have you checked their website ?

Just looked up my Tikka T3 stock featherweight thumbhole and it says 2.3-2.5lbs, the prairie hunter is 2.8lbs

i remember expecting it to be heavier and then being surprised at how light it felt.

im pretty sure they lost all the weights on their website.

Example page from their website...

Boyds: Boyds Classic

Okay thanks. The Classic says 2,8lbs and the thumbhole says 2,5-2,8lbs. Not much difference there.

My recent Boyds FT Thumbhole weighed around 3/4lb more than quoted on their website. I didn't mind as its a truck gum but it could be a problem for a carry gun.
