The Stalker stocks are pretty awesome, but I've got to tell you that other stainless rifles in this price range (Win M70 Rem 700) can be had with Kevlar stocks. Other rifles with plastic stocks, though without the Stalker's excellent rubber coating, are several hundred dollars cheaper.

I only say this to give you options you might want to consider. If the X-Bolt is what you are set on then it is the only rifle you will be happy with. It's certainly a great rifle. I wish you the best of luck in getting the rifle you want.
