    Need a longer scope base

    For my 10/22... I have a tactical solutions 15MOA base now, but it's a little short for my scope. It ends right at the front of the receiver, but I need one that hangs over the barrel a little so I can get more eye relief. I've seen the Volquartsen VC10PR, but I would like one with some...

    Pillar-bed or just Devcon?

    Re: Pillar-bed or just Devcon? Ok did the bedding, and I did NOT permanently epoxy my action into the stock. What a relief! LOL Thanks to all who helped. It came out pretty good too; pillar firmly in place, barrel pad nice and even, rear of receiver slips right into place, and nothing...

    Pillar-bed or just Devcon?

    Re: Pillar-bed or just Devcon? Ok, just an update on the project... As per your advice, I checked to see if the silly-putty would sag if left overnight. It did, a little. Probably just enough to make me worry, so I went out and got some regular modelling clay. Thanks for the heads up on...

    Pillar-bed or just Devcon?

    Re: Pillar-bed or just Devcon? Kombayatch, awesome pics! Thanks a lot for that. So then I guess that decides it. Pillar-bedding it is. Now I just gotta find a source for the pillar material. Question though; how hard is it to drill the escutcheon out? Do you just drill up to it from the...

    Help identify this rifle

    Re: Help identify this rifle It's a fixed floorplate. Alright, I took the action out of the stock again and looked at it with fresh eyes. I guess I was more tired than I thought yesterday. There seem to be a few markings on the trigger, trigger guard, under the front action screw and after...

    Help identify this rifle

    Re: Help identify this rifle Thanks for the quick responses. I just took the scope bases off and nothing under there. I had already taken the action out of the stock and nothing in there either. I did find a few stampings on the magazine follower. I couldn't get a pic of them, but I...

    Help identify this rifle

    Ok, so i got my hands on a well used 30-06 from a friend who's had it forever and has no idea what it is either. He's thinking it's a Winchester, but the bolt looks kinda Mauser if you ask me. There are no markings on the receiver except for a 5-digit serial number. The barrel is stamped...
