I've been following this thread closely as I have a 7mm-08 on order with Forbes. I was really hoping Forbes would jump right in and make this right ASAP. As of now I am going to cancel my order. I'm just getting a bad gut feeling about Forbes. They could have made this all right in a matter of days. Word travels too damn fast on the internet these days.

I would have immediately fixed this by either paying Lobo's shipping both ways or sending him a new rifle. The costs that Forbes would have incurred are cheap compared to what the bad press from this one thread will cost them over the years as more and more people reference it. At 40 pages long Google will be pulling it up anytime someone searches for Forbes info.
