I dont know and could not find out anything about stocks cracking as far as reliability. it will handle standard 2 3/4 hunting loads some some of them dont like the lower powered 1 oz loads. this may get better with more round through them
Hi and welcome. I have owned the wood furniture model for two years and have approximately 700rds through it and so far so good on the furniture. It took a 50 to 75rd break-in to reliably cycle low brass bird loads. Cheers, stay safe and enjoy!
I have not found any information about problems with the wood furniture cracking. Low powered bird shot should be ok. One reviewer wrote - " For my break-in I used 75 rounds of Super-X 1235fps Bird Shot (which is low brass) because its what I mostly shoot. Happy to report that I only had 2 out of 75 rounds fail to cycle, the 3nd & the 5th round. No lite strikes on any round & recoil was excellent." Stay safe & have a great day!
