Improper torquing by the gunsmith I guess but Joe West stock cracked and I'm not the only one who had this issue

I may have some options for you as well. Just starting but will be laminating Carbon Fiber in the layup process moving forward. Below are a few that i have made for my rifles as well as others i shoot with, these do not have CF in the layup. The last 3 are available

Joe west, Bat 3LL, 300 winmag firing 230s. can't reveal the gunsmith as he is a good guy and a friend. Shit happens

If it broke In The grip area, this is pretty common in laminates if they don’t get a rod put in them through grip area.

Just placed an order for a Kestros ZR with pierce engineering. 8 months wait atleast

If you don't mind me asking, whats the $$$ on one of those? Do you psy for the whole thing up front?

I just paid 30 % advance for the entire rig and the breakdown for the Kestros ZR is 1250 minus RAD.

Let me counteract that, here in the U.K. The Joe West stock is very popular, in both F Open and FTR, my guess is between 60-70% of competitors use them. I myself have 3 F Open and 1 FTR Joe West stocks, without issue. I can only think of one occasion that I'm aware of where a Joe West stock split and that was possibly due to bad handling/carriage between firing points. I dId have a PRT stock snap and the handle grip but that was because it fell out of a cabinate onto a quarry tile floor, damage was to be expected!

If u refer to my original post I'm not blaming the stock or the gunsmith. I was asked time and again to name the stock. May be I'm the lesser shooter but my tactical vs F open Stocks have given me the same scores.
