    Converting Savage MKII thumbhole into A5

    Re: Converting Savage MKII thumbhole into A5 eevilweevil, I made it to the range today just before a rain storm hit. I got my target set up at 50yds and checked the zero. It was calm to a very slight head wind. The first target is five rounds of SK standard @ 50 yds. The weather was looking...

    Converting Savage MKII thumbhole into A5

    Re: Converting Savage MKII thumbhole into A5 This is a shot of the recoil pad I made up. Rifle was a little short for me,so I added some length. I think I have reached the point of diminishing returns. I painted the stock with Krylon OD today. I think it looks OK, but it is far from...

    Converting Savage MKII thumbhole into A5

    Re: Converting Savage MKII thumbhole into A5 kyshooter, There are quite a few positive reviews around if you search. I didn't want to spend a lot so it seemed like it might fit the bill for my trainer. I'm hoping to try it out soon. The AO is marked down to 10 yds. and actually focuses past...

    Converting Savage MKII thumbhole into A5

    Re: Converting Savage MKII thumbhole into A5 Kyshooter I just tested some Devcon Metal Patch & Fill. I'm thinking I got the wrong stuff. This stuff comes straight out of the tube. It set up really fast and wasn't sticky enough to give that stomping effect for texture. I've decided to go...

    Converting Savage MKII thumbhole into A5

    Re: Converting Savage MKII thumbhole into A5 Thanks, but it's far from perfect. There has been a lot of just eyeballing it. I used a picture of an A5 that someone had for sale here on the Hide. I just blew it up on my monitor and traced it. I kept enlarging it until it had 13.5 length of...

    Converting Savage MKII thumbhole into A5

    Re: Converting Savage MKII thumbhole into A5 I cut the pistol grip down and relieved the side of the stock to get a thicker coat of duraglass. I then drilled random 1/8" holes over the entire stock. I figured it would give the resin some extra grip. In this next photo you see the guide...

    Re: Converting Savage MKII thumbhole into A5 Thanks for the good words. I should have some more photos up later tonight. I've got to say I was having some doubts when I started putting the Duraglass on. More later.
