Some time back I read an article concerning weights for a rifle stock. Now, I have purchased a stock that is going to need some weight in the butt to offset the 30" Varmint barrel. Honestly, I don't remember if the post was on this forum. Mentioned in the post was the high cost of tungsten and an alternative "heavy" material in place of the costly tungsten. The name of that material is what I am looking for as my wallet can't stand the price of tungsten at this time. I tried B-B's but that didn't add enough weight. The butt stock area is somewhat compromised because it's a thumbhole stock and I'll have to tread lightly in the drilling of holes(s) for weight. HELP!!Thanks.
