[QUOTE="pgothro, post: 2897998, member: 22190"] Stock was chipped many years ago and replaced with a custom Myrtle Wood stock. While it has been in the family its whole life 1962 and mine 1958 I don't feel that it would be sacrilege. While the trigger is excellent and before the barrel went away (bore scope shows very little rifling in the 1st 8”) it was a tack driver and a sure killer. My new 2011 model 70 Safari Express in .375 H&H (made by new Winchester) is even better- wood, fit, finish and deadly accurate (sub MOA) only complaint is the trigger. I think I can't really go backwards. I'm looking at the same profile so no stock change. Just no front sight or rear. It has worn a scope since day 1. But I am torn. [/QUOTE]
