I don't know why you want a wood stock but it is my opinion that a synthetic stock actually flexes under recoil.
So you get less felt recoil.
I hunted with a 338 magnum for 35 years and I went with a fiber-glass stock because it was pretty much weatherproof but the synthetic stock did seem to make a difference in recoil.
