    Gunsmithing Stock modification ideas wanted

    Re: Stock modification ideas wanted They end up getting about 15 coats of paint total when I am done with them. I have used the one on my .308 in snow and rain during deer season and haven't had any problem with them yet. If they did fall apart I could make another pretty easy and for about...

    Re: Another Homemade stock build I will get a weight on one tonight. I can have one to the point of being ready for bedding in a couple of hours anymore. I do the inletting differently now which really speeds things up. I have drawn up the inlet model in sketchup and print that out at a...

    Gunsmithing Removing Savage Accutrigger?

    Re: Removing Savage Accutrigger? It is stupidly easy. Remove the bolt, remove one pin, it will slide out easily. Pull the trigger off the receiver. Slide the safety to the rear, pull the bottom off, slide the top part of safety off the receiver. That's all there is to it.

    Do not bed the rear tang of a Savage action?

    Re: Do not bed the rear tang of a Savage action? On a Savage the rear tang should be free floated because there is no mounting bolt that goes thru it like on a Remington. The bedding should really go between the recoil lug and the rear action screw. Will it hurt anything? Can't say. It...

    Gunsmithing My $5 garage sale stock project. Needing help.

    Re: My $5 garage sale stock project. Needing help. I would scrape or pry somehow remove the old bedding compound. I would then re-bed to your action. After that would tape up your barrel about 5 layers of electrical tape. Then I would shove playdough in your stock throughout the barrel...
