farmerben Posted July 1, 2012 Report Share Posted July 1, 2012 Some how I knocked my gun over. Well let's be honest I was rushing to get out the door and lent it against the table a duly knocked it over. I'll never learn! Anyhow what stock should I get? Custom or a straight factory replacement? And most importantly what's it gonna cost me? Wooden varmint stock btw. Many thanks Ben Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jolly Posted July 3, 2012 Report Share Posted July 3, 2012 out of interest why would you go for a new rather than a repair??? My guess would be strength also it is a way of making your rifle "new" relatively cheaply I personally if I had the cash would do both a new laminated stock and a repair that way you can chop and change Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fo5ter Posted July 3, 2012 Report Share Posted July 3, 2012 A brand new wooden Quad stock (non varmint) cost me £250 when I got sick of the plastic one. The varmint one might be slightly more Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

farmerben Posted July 3, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 3, 2012 Sorry been busy but I'm back now. Crack runs from behind the bolt down towards the trigger, must be the weakest area as it's very thin either side of the action. The crack does open up if the gun is held with the trigger hand only. Thanks for all the replies and will look into your advice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
