Thanks for the good word. I'm thinking about ordering a buck stalker, kind of nervous about buying a rifle sight unseen. I'll have to ask the dealer about that, whether by ordering, I'm committed.
I also own a Winchester model 70 and a marlin 336C. The Winchester failed to fire opening morning 2015, temps in the teens... I took apart the bolt and cleaned the spring and housing, tested it in freezing temps, same thing. Now it's at the smith to get a new spring, been in there 5 weeks, I'm told the spring is back ordered.
