Your rifle looks to be in average original condition with a repaired butt stock.  With a decent bore a retail price of $4-5000.  A poor bore, $500 less.  Selling it to someone for resale $1000 less.  Getting lucky with competing bidders at auction, $1000 more.

The repaired butt  stock appears to be an "arsenal repair" and other than deduction for the crack and for the repair, it  adds character to the rifle. I would not be in a hurry to try and replace the stock. Original stocks are near non-existent, and if you do find one, the price will amaze you. If you plan to resell, consider this. While there are excellent after market new replacement stocks, those will deduct from the value if the original stock is not also included in the sale.
