Would anybody know if this dent can be repaired in my laminate stock - a bit of clay hit it and its taken a chunk out of it😬 its a b525SL if that makes any difference. Any advice is much appreciated!👍

It is wise to at least seal the stock. In airgun stocks I have seen it happen that rain was able to enter the laminate stock. It caused it to de-laminate.
 
They make laminate floor repair kits that come in various colours that might be suitable. I believe that they come with a filler and sealer so might be worth having a look at.

Alternatively you could look for a plastic surgeon (hard surface repair specialist, not the TOWIE/Katie Price type 😝).
 
I recently bought some clear lacquer to do a 'scratch' repair to my car door. The vehicle is dark brown and the scratch was showing white. I applied the lacquer, using the needle topped bottle it came in. The white scratch disappeared as I filled it in with the clear lacquer. I wonder if you applied the same stuff, maybe several applications, it would make it less obvious ? It would probably be the cheapest alternative.

Were you using the gun at the time of the damage, or was it in a gun rack ? Out of a group of 5 or 6 that I shoot with, I am the only one that uses a gunslip. Last week I was standing to the rear of the shooting stand and was struck on the lower leg by a piece of clay. Just to my right was the gun stand witb 4 uncovered guns in it. When I got home I saw that there was a small cut to my leg. 🤔
 
Spent 2 grand on a custom stock and the first time I shot with it a quarter of a clay landed on it next to the top lever, big semi circular dent. **** happens.🤪
