I'm guessing 45 BPE but haven't checked :)
Should a Rhino or elephant come rampaging down the street I may or may not be covered.

Well the bore is bigger than 45
So it is a 50 BPE

It was well taken care of and he was a Great the wood to metal transition is fantastic.

I'm right handed and left eye dominant so this stock works for me.
It is also the reason I could afford it.
