Walnut vs USGI vs JAE-100 for the M14

[INCURSORI]

I'm in a dilema as to what to outfit my M305/M14 with in the way of a stock.
From a strict "ACCURACY" point of view, which will yeild better reults:
1) a Quality Walnut NM stock, such as Boyds, inletted($120+/-)
2)USGI Fiberglass, again, inletted ($120+/-)
3)the JAE-100 stock ($1000+)
4)any other high-end tactical stock

I'm done with the LCF (Look-Cool factor). If it doesn't help the accuracy of the rifle, its not getting bolted on. For the money, is the JAE really worth it?

Thanks Guys,

Marco P

If money is a concern, get a USGI fiberglass and bed it.

i believe most competition shooters with the m14 still just use usgi fiberglass regardless of all the options like the sage and JAE-100

I have an individual performing his non-bedded NM mod on two of my USGI synthetics.
Before and after documentation with pictures and a range report will be made available in about 2 weeks.
I have a few SAGE stocks, I have worked with the new TROY M14 MCS and I once had a 14 bedded in walnut.
This NM mod on a synthetic stock could turn out to be the best bang for your/my buck.

The first reports will be posted over on EBRSOPMODS.

There is an outstanding synthetic stockmaker in Canada named Ian Robertson. He posts on the competitive rifle forums. Most of his models are for single shot target rifles. He may have an equivalent stock for your Norinco M14 - at less cost and hassle than a McMillan, and your dollars stay in Canada. If you search for Robertson Composites, you will get his website.
