Sorry, i forgot to mention, the $500 is the price of one brand new. it' s the american walnut stock. heres a pic of the one i want:



Halcon - why didnt you keep the rifle. ive shot a few 700s and they seem like a pretty good rifle to me. my budget won' t let me spend much more, and once i throw a scope on it, im looking at a minimum of spending $750 total. i definitely want to make an informed decision if im going to spend $500 on a new rifle.
