hey sorry for being gone so long, lifes kinda hectic. anyones to through another loop into the plan, i am left handed so most bolt actions are not gonna work and a thumb hole is definetly not gonna work. and in your personal opinions is stainless got an advantage or at least for the money over blued.
FYI... TC does make the Omega in LH thumbhole w/ the laminate stock.. but it's a little pricy.
I personally feel that the SS barrels hold up much better to the black powder and the elements than blued barrels. But blued barrels have been around forever.. so???
