Glad I'm not the only one....
methinks the good folks in Grand Island ought to stick to ammunition and bullets.

I see that it is already $30,000 over what I would pay for it...

Spectacular wood in the stock but lacking artistry in shaping that stock to be a thing of artistic beauty?

For that price, you could buy a Krieghoff Double Rifle, take it to Africa and test it on a couple of cape buffalo.

Are my eyes deceiving me...or is that also a Howa clone?

The yearly SHOT Show guns and knives usually sell for obscene prices. It's like the charity cars that go through Barrett-Jackson this week - the bidders know that they can write of the cost of the donation, and they like the cause.

Way too angular and ornate to make me want it.

I agree with you all. The lines on the stock do nothing for me at all. It has no grace and flow to it.
The late Jack O'Connor would look at that rifle and his comment would be, "That stock would abort a lady crocodile." :lol: I stole that line from an article Jack did in a copy of Gun Digest many years back. I do believe he would have repeated himself on that rifle if he were alive today.

Ugly as hell! I wouldnt pay $500 for it. Not a single smooth curve on it. Looks like the stock was cut on a cnc mill then clear coated. Come on Hornady! :roll:

That stock looks like something that fell off the international space station. I can swallow some of the recent changes in molded stocks, etc. which still have curves, smoothness, and roundness - this doesn't fit in that category. My high school shop teacher would have given it an "F". Me, too.
