thumbhole stock

What are the pros and cons of thumbhole stocks?

Pro - I think they look nice. Con - usually adds unwanted torque if you stick your thumb in it and squeeze your hand

I use a thumbhole for 1000 yard comp and love them.
Some would say it effects the way a gun recoils or that it takes a little longer to get back to the trigger but I dont see either as a "con". And if your torquing the rifle by squeezing then your not holding it right.

Its all in what you get use to.
