It didn't crack when shooting RST low pressure loads, it broke when shooting modern loads. Doesn't matter much does it? It's broken!

To have a stock replaced on a Sterlingworth will cost you close to $2k using a qualified craftsman. A broken stock can most likely be repaired so that the repair is almost undetectable. That is the path I would follow for a Sterlingworth. If the stock is unrepairable you may be better off just buyi...
