I put the stock on it after I received the barreled action. - dan

I'm watching a bit at a time, and enjoying it. Every time I drive through there, I think I should call and stop to visit. The timing is never right, or I'm just not good at making the time. Same poor excuses for never going to Pincher Creek! Thanks for posting.
