Any idea what they are priced at?  1000.00-1200.00 US?

Thats just NUTS . You got to really like them if you are going to pay that much for one. Just don't buy into any idea that they are going to make much differance in the way your gun shoots.

Not that I want to spend that kind of money but if someone has an extra JTR kicking around I would sure like one this year............

If not I have to move on......

I have never seen an all Canadian JTR they must be nice; however with the supply concerns as they are, another option you might want to consider is the Kelbly Club.  It is my understanding that it is a copy of the Borden R&M stock that Robertson has been making for Jim.

Ken thanks for the heads up on the RimRock. 

Gary, I did not realize the Scarborough might be that much when a Robertson is QUITE a bit less. 

I guess I may look at the next option a Tony Larson cedar/carbon fiber.  I know the last I had talked they were running around 700.00US.

If not I just may play the waiting game.......

The JTR stocks are a VERY NICE design.  I do like my Speedy BRX but it is very thick in the grip and I do not have the largest hands.  It should not matter as I shoot free recoil but I just like that it feels right when I handle it.

Calvin,

Ian Robertson just posted the following on CGN:

"I think the Robertson web site may change shortly with some news that will make many around the world very happy"......... "an expanded line (there is already over thirty models that many don't know about, Savage as well), deliveries the way it used to be, less that four weeks with some off the shelf while still maintaining the best quality in the world, and much more."
