Great info. I appreciate it. You are spot on about replacing the cheap stock. I did an internet search and a lot of guys did the same thing. I haven't bought the rifle yet, but that doesn't mean I won't snag it at some point. The shop has had it for about 3 years, so its way over priced at $699.99. My best option is to trade him something that he wants more and something I don't have a lot of money into. That way I feel like I am not giving in to that high price tag. Thanks for the info.
