Is the Hogue a full length bed stock?
It’s the standard pillar bed stock and not the full length bed stock. It’s been fine for use on a bipod but there is a bit of flex to it. If I were looking at a Hogue I’d go with the full length bed it should have a stiffer forend. I’ve never used the Hogue, but I have replaced a few stocks with the Bell and Carlson.
