thank you for sharing the story with us.

i did not have the bolt body secured well plus to add insult to injury i also should have had the carbide bit shaft as short as possible to limit any deflection; lesson learned. i am happy i tried it even at the expense of making the rifle less desirable to most. if there is a next time, i am...

thank you for posting your...
there is something i have always liked about the bell and carlson tactical stock that the remington folks get to play with. this is where i got most of the aesthetic inspiration from. i have never handled a stock anything like any of these and am asking for feedback as a result. i may try and...
