When I see that same ammo on the shelf it's right around $100 per box. I've never seen it for the retail price advertised on that website but if you could get it for $60 per box that would be pretty awesome. That's the same price they sell the ballistic tip ammo for. I was not in a position to get set up to reload for this and get ready for the season. This is the first time I've bought rifle ammo off the shelf like this. FWIW, that website is Nosler's outlet for all their blem ammo. That being COSMETIC blemishes. Me? I'd take some water-stained brass for a 40-dollar discount!

kevshell Was your wife's stock too broken up to repair with parts missing, wood or synthetic? Does Boyds gunstocks not make a model to fit it, or did you just not want to go that route? I have helped repair some pretty badly broken stocks and while maybe not as pretty as original, but they were stronger and very serviceable. Yes I do come from a time and raising where we had to repaired anything and everything we could if possible before replacing it. Old habits die hard. No offence intended just an inquiring mind. Any reason to buy a new rifle is a good reason.

Junebug Well, here it is. We were chasing elk in the timber and a small to medium sized tree got wedged between the gun stock and the horse. The gun stock lost as you can see. It snapped right where the pillar goes through the rear of the action. I've been told it's not worthy of repairing. I'm not an expert on the topic but I just went off what some others told me.

A little baling twine and some Duct tape should take care of that.

Brown Santa just brought the last piece to the puzzle. The weather is looking good so I hope to get some trigger time and get it set up the end of the week.
