Don't forget that Those nice wooden European rifle are mostly used for European type of hunting.
Where you stalk or move to your shooting post with the rifle in its soft (leather,sometime:-) case or bag.
Once the hunting action is finished ,it is back in the bag .
And often on a driven shooting, you are not even going after the game that you might have wooded; it is the role of the tracker with his short barrel plastic stock blaser and his dogs to find the wooded game, and sometime into some thick blueberry bush! These rifle definitely get trashed!
