I love the look of the full/international stocks on rifles such as in the CZ or the Ruger.

Does the full stock take away from any of the accuracy? What are the pros and cons to a full stock?

Just because I like a full stock would not get one if I am missing out on performance.

Thanks

I recently almost bought a full stocked Ruger. The seller told me that it had no loss in accuracy (for him anyway) in comparison to his regular stocked rifles.

Maybe in your eyes! LoL I find them beautiful!

Hell you are the guy that likes the look of synthetic-stocked stainless rifles which goes to show the only taste you have is in your mouth! ;)
 
They are eye candy for sure.

It'd be very Hemingway to have a Mannlicher-Schunauer in 6.5x55.

Edit: Should have been 6.5x54. I stand corrected by this thread!

I have two Sako's (AIII, & AV) in the full length stock and they are beautiful. Accurate as hell, and because of the slightly shorter barell, a lot easier to handle in the bush, and when you're shooting at running game. I was eyeing a Ruger in .308 at one time but the Sako in .338 came up first.
 
I don't really like the look of it, but some of it might be the logic that it means you've got a bunch of extra weight.
 
Fullstocks

I have an Interarms Mark X .308 WIN fullstock with the flat bolt handle and this rifle not only looks killer but it shoots wonderfully. I have also restocked a rebarred sporterized Swede 94 carbine chambered in the 30-06' with an original 96 Mauser stock ending up with a Mannlicher style fullstock the only part left to finish it is the nose cap which I picked up from Brownells. Nice design those Cavalry Fullstock type stocks. Regards
