Thanks, Bruce - never heard of that. Would the pierced primer be associated with a mis-fire? I didn't realize primers had that much explosive force but now wonder if that's the reason the stock was replaced.
Thanks also for the compliment; I call her my Hollywood gun since she was shippped to LA originally....she's been stepped on a bit - replaced a cracked and crumbling Jostam Hy-Gun pad with the Hawkins, rechecked the forend and refinished the entire stock so the wood matched. The forend was visibly years older, darker and worn than the stock.
