The Superleggera stock from WOOX is a masterclass in blending heritage materials with modern design. Crafted for the discerning hunter or shooter who values lightweight performance and aesthetics, this ultra-light hunting stock pairs American walnut with carbon-reinforced composites. It offers modern ergonomics, adjustability, and precision without sacrificing the classic beauty of real wood. A perfect upgrade for those looking to elevate their hunting rifle with form and function.
The Vision Behind the Superleggera
It starts with a feeling. The weight of a finely balanced rifle in your hand, the smooth texture of walnut against your cheek, and the thrill of a clean shot taken in crisp morning air. That’s the emotional foundation behind the WOOX Superleggera.
WOOX has built a reputation by fusing classic woodworking craftsmanship with modern shooting needs. The Superleggera (“super light” in Italian) continues that tradition. It’s designed for those who want a hunting rifle that doesn’t just shoot well—but feels and looks exceptional in the field.
Design & Technical Highlights
At just over 2 lbs, the Superleggera stock stands out as one of the lightest wooden stocks available today. This is achieved through thoughtful material choices: American walnut is used where it matters—at all shooter touch points—while a carbon-reinforced nylon mini chassis replaces heavier aluminum components to reduce overall weight and maintain structural integrity.
The result? A rifle stock that maintains wood’s timeless aesthetic and tactile feel, while benefiting from the stability and consistency of modern materials.

Hands-On Experience
When Alabama Arsenal dropped their .86 Blackout SPR bolt-action rifle into the Superleggera, the response was immediate: jaws dropped. The fusion of classic American walnut with a tactical-style blackout bolt-action created a rifle that was both head-turning and field-ready.
Whether at the range or in the woods, this stock draws attention—but more importantly, it performs. Every detail is tuned for real-world use. From the textured fore-end grip to the smart accessory mounting options, it delivers modern functionality wrapped in a shell of artisanal elegance.
Shooters report exceptional comfort, quick shoulder acquisition, and a sense of confidence that comes only from gear that feels dialed in.
The WOOX Superleggera is more than a lightweight stock. It’s a statement piece for hunters and shooters who demand beauty and performance in equal measure. Every line, every material choice, and every feature speaks to a thoughtful design philosophy rooted in tradition but executed with cutting-edge innovation.
If you’re building a custom hunting rifle or upgrading an existing setup, the Superleggera offers a rare balance of aesthetics, ergonomics, and utility. Simply put: it looks good, feels great, and shoots like a dream.
