Re: Meat in the pot 20 gauge Sterly
All my customs have a bit of cast for a right handed shooter. Not much, but its there. This particular gun has a bit of a parallel comb. That's not bad because dependent on what you are shooting at within the hell hole of woodcock cover, you don't always have the same gun mount to your cheek. Sometimes you are a bit back and sometimes you are a bit further forward. I don't crawl my stock they way some folks do. Probably have my cheek a bit further back. I can shoot 2 1/4" to 2 5/8" DAC pretty well. 2 3/4" or more DAC and I'm not gonna hit crap.

Beautiful stock. Wondering who did this work or whom you might recommend for restocking.

That was done by Dan Rossiter years and years ago. He has moved onto G&H now and I think having them restock a Fox would be quite expensive. You might reach out to Brian Dudley at BMD gunstocks. He will have a bit of a backlog, but does good work. Stocks a lotta Parkers.Upland Hunter wrote: ↑Thu Jan 09, 2025 7:43 am Beautiful stock.

PS. Dan May is also considered a good stocker. He works at Classic Gunstocks.

Thank you for the information. Aim to explore restocking options further.
