    Fat barreled Mosin Nagant build.

    Re: Fat barreled Mosin Nagant build. What actions are flat bottomed like the Nagant? Heard the Tikka's stocks are a good fit with minimal work for the Nagant. Any others?

    Fat barreled Mosin Nagant build.

    Re: Fat barreled Mosin Nagant build. Biff, The chamber has not been a problem as is. Accuracy reports from people I trust and respect are quite good. I was just wondering if there was any advantage to tightening up the .020 chamber play. Is .020 an excessive figure in a rifle built for...

    Fat barreled Mosin Nagant build.

    I don't own a bolt action, rarely shoot them and I know little about them so what do I do? I go out and buy a completely stripped Mosin Nagant reciever and a 7.62X54r chambered and threaded fat barrel for the intention of building a "benchrest" gun from the ground up. When It's all said and...
