Guys, I need some guidance. I wanted to get a new chassis for my 5R in .308, but I don't see that happening anytime soon. Especially since the one I really want is over $1200. I need to send out my rifle so I can get it threaded so i can mount a muzzle brake. I really want to be able to see my hits with the scope at 600 yards, main reason for the brake.
So here is my question, since it came with the V-Block HS stock, will I see any improvement in bedding the action on this stock? Will it be worth the $200 or so dollars to get it done? I eventually want to get the chassis, but that might not happen until next year, so I wonder if I should even bother.
Also, I'd like to go local on the work if I can, anyone know of a good smith within a hour or two of Chicago? Any suggestions are always welcome.
