Earlier in the thread, you were cautioned about the big box stores. I generally agree w/what was said, but I do believe you should consider Dicks Sporting Goods if you have one not too far from you. As long as you go into a big box store knowing what you want and that they have it, you're good to go. Just don't ask them any questions so they can change your mind or cause you to question what you need.

Dicks is great if you catch them on a sale. Here's an example. The first Thompson Center Omega I purchased was a Camo, stainless, weathershield, muzzleloader w/thumbhole stock. The gun was easily a mid $500 purchase. (Read very good gun) The gun was on sale for, IIRC, $459, a $100 discount. It lso had a $50 mfr. discount. Tax price was about $414 for what could have easily been a $600 tax price gun.
