The MDT Chassis System with Timber Core transforms the Ruger American rifle platform into a precision shooting instrument with enhanced ergonomics and modularity. This chassis system bridges the gap between traditional hunting rifles and tactical precision platforms, offering shooters expanded customization options and improved accuracy potential.
What Makes This Different
The Timber Core design incorporates natural wood aesthetics with modern aluminum construction, creating a unique hybrid that appeals to both traditional and tactical shooters. Unlike standard polymer stocks, this chassis provides multiple attachment points for accessories while maintaining the classic appearance many hunters prefer. The system increases the rifle's rigidity significantly compared to factory stocks, contributing to more consistent shot placement.
Key Features
- Precision-machined aluminum chassis with timber core insert for enhanced aesthetics
- Compatible with Ruger American short action rifles in right-hand configuration
- Integrated Picatinny rail sections for optics and accessories mounting
- Adjustable length of pull and comb height for custom fit
- AICS magazine compatibility for improved feeding reliability

Field performance shows measurable improvements in accuracy consistency, with many shooters reporting tighter group sizes compared to factory stocks. The rigid platform reduces harmonic vibrations that can affect precision, making it suitable for competitive shooting, long-range hunting, and tactical applications. Weather resistance comes from the anodized aluminum construction, which withstands moisture and temperature extremes better than traditional wood stocks.
