 WOOX Introduces the Elegante Sporter Purpose-Built Bolt Action Stock

The New Standard in Classic Hunting Stocks

Hickory, NC. – (June 24th, 2026) – WOOX, manufacturers of Italian-American made gunstocks, axes and knives, crafted with the finest materials and the latest technology, is proud to announce the introduction of the new Elegante Sporter bolt action rifle stock. The Sporter was designed and engineered for hunters who appreciate classic form with modern features, and field-proven performance.

“The Elegante Series began as a true passion project for our entire team,” said Ben Fleming, CEO of WOOX USA. “WOOX has always been known for blending the timeless character of wood with the strength, performance, and modern refinement of metal and aluminum. With the Elegante Series, our goal was to create something that felt classic and nostalgic in appearance, while incorporating modern design elements that enhance repeatability, consistency, and precision.” Fleming goes on to say, “We poured an incredible amount of care, craftsmanship, and intention into every detail of this series, and I’m confident the result is a timeless design that will resonate with end users who value both beauty and performance.”

The new Elegante Sporter stock embodies the essence of the traditional hunting rifle. Crafted from carefully selected Claro American Walnut, this elegant stock showcases the natural beauty and character of the wood while delivering the balance and handling expected from a modern bolt action platform. The Sporter is perfectly shaped and crafted in Italy, and hand finished in Hickory, NC. Weighing in at just 30 ounces, the Elegante Sporter is well under the weight of a traditional wood rifles stock.  It utilizes an integrated aluminum mini-chassis to create the perfect balance between weight, repeatability, handling, and performance. This unique stock provides the same precision tolerances and repeatable bedding geometry that gives you chassis level performance in a traditional walnut stock.

The Elegante Sporter stock is built from a single piece of American Walnut with two choices of wood grades, standard or high-grade American Walnut. Each is hand-selected and chosen specifically for grain and character. Because walnut is a natural material, no two stocks carry the same pattern. The one you order is the only one that looks exactly like it, anywhere.

Premium Features include:

·       Full-length standard and high-grade American walnut, hand-oiled

·       Integrated aerospace-grade aluminum mini-chassis

·       Slim forend for fast, natural handling

·       Traditional grip geometry with integrated thumb rest

·       Ebony accents on grip and forend tip

·       M-LOK 2-slot rail at 6 o'clock position on forend for accessories

·       Microcell recoil pad assists in reduction of felt recoil

·       Adjustable length of pull via optional spacers

·       MSRP: Standard American Walnut $569.00

                  High Grade Walnut $899.00

*Currently available for: Remington 700 SA/LA · Ruger 10/22 · Ruger

American Gen2

The Elegante Line is WOOX's first purpose-built bolt-action platform for sport shooters and hunters; designed for those individuals who build or upgrade their rifle to keep and pass on for generations. This new line of stocks represents WOOX’s commitment to offering the finest old- world handcrafted quality in a technologically advanced platform. While other manufacturers put chassis systems inside synthetic or mass-produced wood stocks, WOOX utilizes a single hand-selected piece of hand-oiled Claro American Walnut on the outside with an aerospace-grade aluminum mini-chassis on the inside; precision-machined for chassis-level performance and repeatable bedding.

Like every WOOX creation, they are crafted in Italy, assembled and tested in the USA, and are built to last a lifetime. For more information about all WOOX premium stocks, knives, axes and accessories, please visit www.wooxstore.com and follow them on Facebook and Instagram.

If you could only shoot one caliber for the next year, what would you choose?

Hello everyone,

I’m about to jump in the 300 BLK train, and I’ve narrowed my decision to the following 2 rifles- I like the compact, lightweight and simple approach of these two-

Sugar Weasel SBR- https://www.liveqordie.com/sugar-weasel-7-in-300-blk-shorty

GQ Armory Fallout PDW

https://gqarmory.com/product/fallout-pdw-300-blackout/

Any opinions or though here? This will be a fun range/ truck gun, maybe home defense.

I don’t mind and actually like the aesthetics of it. I just can’t decide which way to go. Price wise it’s a wash…

Hey everyone, I’m looking for some guidance on choosing my first precision bolt‑action rifle.

Right now I’m really interested in the Tikka T3x TAC A1 in 6.5 Creedmoor with the 24” barrel, but I’m open to other recommendations.

My goals and details:

- I want a setup capable of consistent accuracy out to 1,000–1,200 yards

- My total budget is around $5,000 including optics and accessories. Give or take.

- I’m not looking to buy something cheap and upgrade later — I’d rather start with a rifle I won’t outgrow

- I’m aiming for a reliable, accurate long‑range platform with good long‑term potential

I’ve also been hearing a lot about custom rifles. If anyone has experience with custom builds — pros, cons, cost differences, or whether they’re worth it for a first long‑range setup — I’d really appreciate more information.

If you have experience with the TAC A1 or similar rifles, or if you’d recommend something else in that range, I’d love to hear your thoughts.

Thanks
