I bed a bit forward. This shows the clay bedding block and the piece of plastic that I used to raise the barrel for the first step of casting the lug support.
The rifle was an earlier version of my much-modified 308 "deer gun" whose only remaining original part is the Remington Action. After several seasons of threading by flashlight a "top-off" into the internal magazine to replace the round chambered after safely entering my blind, organizing my...
Best tasting deer I have shot was a “deer-of-the-year” whose size was hidden because his head and heart were on one side of a large tree and his give-away tail on the other side of the tree. 180-grain 308 Accubond destroyed his heart and bled him out by by the time I walked the 60-yards up to...
