[QUOTE="comfisherman, post: 2831291, member: 8394"] I bought both a standard skinny barrel b mag and eventually the stainless plastic stock version. Both from Walmart clearance deals combined with mail in rebates. Think the blued was 134 plus a 25 rebate... it short fine. Good enough to vaporize squeaks to 200. Around the second box the bolt seized and it stopped working, we got home and shook the bolt as it was rattling. Some small what appeared to be crushed pins fell out, the bolt started working again and has since then. No idea where the bits of metal came from.... Bought the volquartsen and decided to stash the stainless b mag in my BIL safe and give the blued one to my hunting buddy for his kids to abuse on squeaks. Went in to buy a 77 17 wsm and walked out with the 77/17 hornet... figured it was worth mixing it up a little. Glad I did, it's a shockingly mild centerfire round, and if my stash of 17 wsm ever dries up its at least re loadable. [/QUOTE]
