It has been repaired once and not done well.
Replacing the stock on a C would be easily a $4000 job to do properly with correct checking, skeleton butt and high quality European walnut. It would likely take at least a year and the result may not be as good as what you have. In my opinion, replacement would be completely unwarranted.
I would shoot it this fall and then send it to Dennis Smith, the Stock Doctor in Oregon .
I usually hunt Eastern Montana for sharptails in September. We will see about this year , I am concerned about low bird numbers.
