Reviews & Ratings for Boyds Hardwood Gunstocks Rifle Stock At One Thumbhole Thompson Center Compass Detachable Box Mag Short Action FBC — 2 reviews — Page 1

The rifle sits crooked and the ledt side of the barrel contacts the stock. No amount of reseating will change this. The front action screw didnt reach 20 inch poinds before the stock wanted to crack at the center lamination.
I've decided a pillar job and a full length bedding will solve my issue. Out of the box the stock looks great but the fitment was terrible.

The action refuses to sit properly in the stock, as if the recoil lug is canted or the action screw holes are misaligned enough to make proper alignment impossible. It is bad enough that the barrel is touching the left side just in front of the chamber area.

The trigger guard metal would not even fit into the stock. You would think this would be checked at the factory.

The front action screw could not even reach 20 inch-pounds before the stock started to crack and delaminate right in the middle, just forward of the screw hole. The damage is very minor because I used a torque screwdriver and stopped the moment I heard it begin to crack.

I had debated bedding it with pillars, and now that appears to be my only option so I can get everything where it should be and achieve proper torque.

At the moment, switching from the original stock to the Boyds stock has actually made the rifle less accurate.

Personally, I would not buy another Boyds stock after this experience.
