    Reinforcing stock wrist - anyone done this?

    I have reinforced the wrist on a few of my hunting rifles, especially if it's a heavy caliber or something that's gonna get hard use or be transported in a scabbard on a horse. Although it's never happened to me, I have seen stocks get broken in the field and this gives me Peace of Mind
