I am a full time, full service gun shop.
If the stock is hollow, it's no big deal, just a little extra work. Most are not however. They use bowling ball filler so that the shell has some internal support.
I don't use a saw to cut for LOP. I've made fixtures for stock work that go into milling machines. Doing it this way and climb cutting around the periphery ensures a clean edge free of chips and splits.
Good luck.
