    Choate Stock Mounting Problem?

    Re: Choate Stock Mounting Problem? Ok, did some reading on "floating the tang" and it makes sense. Thanks for the clue. Sometimes you just have to know what words to search for. "stock gap" gets you no answers I think the "float" on this is just a little excessive, I can probably bring down...

    Choate Stock Mounting Problem?

    Re: Choate Stock Mounting Problem? Thanks everyone for all the feedback. I'm glad I'm not the only one. The gap is right at the trigger assembly, I would be concerned about getting grit in there. Plus it looks like junk with a gap. No word from Choate, I'll keep you all posted.

    Choate Stock Mounting Problem?

    Re: Choate Stock Mounting Problem? I e-mailed Choate to get a definitive answer on the whole deal. I'll let you guys know what they say. What Txgunnertx said: that is kinda what I thought. I was under the impression that all the short actions with 4.4" spacing were going to fit the same...

I'm not sure what brand of rings they are but it is a weaver type base. I ended up putting a piece of paper board under the rear ring and...

    .22lr scope compatibility?

    Hello all, I have a T/C 22 Classic. It is a semi auto 22lr. I recently got a Burris Signature Select scope 8-32x44 on a good deal. For kicks I wanted to put the scope on the 22. I know it is too much scope for the gun but I was excited and didn't have another gun to put it on. However, I can get...
