    Pre-64 Win 70 Action In McMillan HTG Stock

    Does anyone know if the pre-64 Win Model 70 action will fit and could be ordered in the McMillan HTG stock? I'm curious if anyone has done it. I'm looking to build a rifle based on an action that I have. I would use a barrel contour similar to the Rem varmint contour. Any other suggestions...

    Stock Howa barreled action??

    I am thinking about giving the Howa a try. I can buy a barreled action for around 400 bucks. What do you guys think of these stock rifles. Are they any more accurate than a remington? On average anyway?? Lee

    Gunsmithing Inlet a McMillan stock to fit a badger action

    I have a McMillan A5 and was wondering if it would be possible to inlet it for a Badger long action? It is inletted for a Stiller Tac 300 action/Rem L/A, I imagine that the inletting would be along the same lines as to what you do to an AICS but I am not gunsmith.

    Gunsmithing "Timing" off in bolt action ?????????

    I have a rem 700 (6.5 x 47) that, i think, the "timing is off." Please correct me if the following problem is not that, and, if it is...how to fix it.
