Default Genesis Grey Laminate Thumbhole stock

I just receivedmy Remington Genesis today from Cabela's, and I was wondering if anyone had issues with the stock. Mine has a few smallorange spots on the stock. I'm not sure if this is common to the "grey laminate" models or not, but I figured I would ask since I know a lot of you guys have purchased them recently.

I'd post a picture of what I'm talking about, but I'm ina hurry...... maybe I'll get one up later.

I got mine yesterday, and I didnt notice any spots like that on mine, but I will check it out, and let you know. What are you planning on shooting out of yours?

I'm not sure what I'm going to shoot out of it, butI plan to trythe same load I'm currently using in my Pro Hunter, which is100grof pyrodex (2 pellets), and a 250gr. Hornady sst sabot. I get really groups from my T/C, and I suspect the Genesis should also do pretty well with that load.

Here's apic with a couple of the orange spots. The pic is not the best, but there's quite a few of these spots on both sides of the stock; it actually has a rusty look.


Kind of takes away from an otherwise pretty nice looking gun.
