Hi all,

I am trying to pull together my ideal (in theory at this stage) HFT Springer. It will have a Mk 1 HW85 action, an HW98 .177" barrel and an HFT style stock.

I have taken a punt on a stock that was for sale on here hoping it will fit or can be made to fit. There is no butt pad and the butt of the stock slopes slightly back/down. In other words the bottom of the butt is slightly forward of the top.

Is this usual for an HFT type stock? If so what are the advantages?

Cheers Rich.
