For the short term, my wife's rifle is getting bedded into a "coyote" laminate Prairie Hunter from Boyd's. She decided she wanted me to screw the factory barrel back on so she can use it for deer this winter.

We have a couple of cheap american walnut blanks from Richard's Microfit (got them $68 a piece, shipped) to serve as fitting stocks to send out to Macon to get custom Turkish walnut stocks duplicated. Still waiting for Macon to call me to let me know they've found two suitable blanks that are well matched for our rifles - kinda hoping that call doesn't come too soon, since that signals a hefty bill...

I wouldn't mind getting a purple Prairie Hunter for mine, or black/grey, possibly to have it as a "hunting stock" for beating around the deer woods, but my wife says that if we're spending money for "fancy stocks" then by God, we're going to get our money's worth out of them. She insists that if we're afraid to hunt with them, we shouldn't be bolting them to our rifles.
