Going to bed one into an M40 profile stock that is inletted for long action. What do people here feel is the absolute best go-to guide for a mechanically inclined DIY-er?

Like to revive this thread. Looking for information on the same topic, but with a qualifier.


I am am more mechanically inclined than most, have attention to detail (read as OCD), but am working in the basement, have never done anything like this, and don't have access to anything more than a Dremel in terms of power tools. No mill or lathe. In my estimation that is not DIY. Is this realistic, or am I whistling. If it's realistic, I have researched this online lots of places and can't really find any consensus on methods. Everyone seems to do it different. References to being a French model come to mind about getting info off the internet. But still, I consider this a reputable forum and would seriously listen to what you guys have to say.
