"Well, I had been messaging DocEd and ended up saying I'd just be better of to buy a Ruger Precision Rifle."
Just to set the story as straight, I never advised anyone to buy a Ruger Precision Rifle. Period!
Please go back and read the PM. If you will notice that since you live in Ohio, I suggested you contact Adam Bentley at Dresden Gunworks Ltd. to address your bolt face issues. The Truth Will Set You Free!
Yeah, I said that. Sorry I wasn't more clear.
With the AR's and all the synthetic stocks and now cassis's, aesthetically rifles have gone to crap.
