All I can say about Boyds is WOW!
After waiting for Boyds to release the X gun stocks last spring, I finally got around to ordering a Dakota Peppered for my 30-06. Get this, I ordered it yesterday after lunch and I come home from work tonight and it's on my doorstep! Paid for the cheapest ground shipping to boot.
But that's only a small part of the Wow. The biggest Wow is the stock is truly a fine piece of work. Fits like an absolute glove. Took all of three or four minutes to install. Very precision piece. I was expecting a small amount of fitment, but I mean it's perfect. Dollar bill slides right under the barrell and the triggerguard, bolt, and action cutouts were abosolutely spot on. Beautiful finish to boot.
Raised cheekpiece fits like it was custom made for me. I'm glad I waited as I almost ordered a Classic a while back, but I'm a taller guy and this Dakota shoulders perfectly.
Adding the stiffness and weight of the stock really makes the gun feel like an absolute quality piece. I couldn't be any happier. Thanks Boyd's and thanks to the guys on the forum for all the reviews and pics of their fine products!
