Thanks guys, that answers a lot of questions that were in my mind. I didn't know for sure if they made them with synthetic stocks, but now I know they didn't. It's in great shape and kind of calling to me. I don't really mind the right hand eject and left hand bolt and of the ones I've shot, they've been tack drivers (both chambered for 222). Another question: What is the best mount and rings for these things as I think the reciever was only drilled for 3 holes (2 in front and 1 in the rear).
