Reply With QuoteI have a similar Walther LG300, (no XT)with a blue painted wooden stock.
Wouldnt know why a wooden stock would be a disadvantage.
Maybe weight/balance wise vs laminated stock.
But those LG300's are greast rifles, nomatter what stock!
I wondered how that worked..
thinking of buying one of these, anyone got any opinions??Action is fine, but wondered about wooden stock on a target rifle

My wife has an LG300xt Junior in the laminated stock, superb rifle. The wood stock is as good as the ally ones shooting wise, has a little less simple adjustability but can with care be set up to fit just as well. It takes a bit more effort to set up weight and ballance, she has weights in the butt and the fore end to get it perfect. The wood has a nicer tactile feel to the touch and a nicer (not so dead) feel when shot to the alloys, many top level shooter have stuck to wood and some who didn't have gone back to it. A good choice, good shooting.
