Saw a photo of a new buttstock in process which raised my curiosity about the process. If you were to custom build/order a shotgun with a specific cast on/off preference, what option is the "right" way to execute;
(1) create straight stock blank and bend later
(2) carve the blank with cast as part of finished stock
One can always argue stocks should start life straight for benefit of future users who may wish to modify the cast. But cheekpieces are always put into the original stock - so why not cast?
