I just got one of these myself, I picked it up from a friend. I paid $900 but it came with a good scope and good rings. The plastic stock feels pretty cheap to me, it's not rubbery or anything like that, it's just a hunk of plastic. I'd go with the McMillan stock if I was buying it new, but I painted my factory stock with a can of some kind of paint that's supposed to leave a "granite" texture when it dries. It worked well, it's nice and squishy, and it has little white specks all over it. It's still not a McMillan, tho.
