[QUOTE="Kevin Cram, post: 475980, member: 2215"] Sleeving was a pretty common practice years ago. It helped to stiffen the action and it created a much larger bedding area.. This was done before there were many custom actions readily available. The Davidson sleeve was probably the most popular but several custom machinists made their own. The sleeve is just epoxied fast to the action and if you really wanted to you could heat up the sleeve and push out the action. [/QUOTE]
